WRITING PROJECTS

Well Behaved Women: I’ve been jumping back and forth between the first draft of book two — which is at 6,000 pages or so now — and a second draft of book one. I’m also in the early planning stages for the covers, and I have what I think is a really cool concept in mind.

The Adventures of Strongarm & Lightfoot – book four: First draft in progress.

Action Figures – Issue Seven: The Black End War: Fourth draft finished, and it’s off to my editor! She should have her work finished by the end of the year.

Action Figures – Issue Eight: Crawling from the Wreckage: Third draft written.

Action Figures – Issue Nine: Rough plotting in progress.

Action Figures – Issue One: Secret Origins (audiobook): Review completed, final editing in progress.

APPEARANCES and EVENTS

• Friday, January 12 through Monday, January 15, 2018: Arisia at the Westin Boston Waterfront Hotel. I’ll be back selling books and, hopefully, speaking on several panels.

MISC.

On a completely frivolous note, I finally indulged in a new banner for shows. I used the artwork from The Adventures of Strongarm & Lightfoot – Blades of Glory and spent a little extra to get a more portable style of banner to make transportation and setup easier. As you can see, my dog Beatrix likes it. So do I!
