Hey everyone,
It’s time for another monthly update! This one is a quick post, but I think it’s important to keep you in the loop and let you know that everything is going according to plan.
Things are still moving along, and I’m pleased with the edits I’ve been making. I really think that the overall quality of the third book will reflect the time and effort it is taking to really dig into the details. I’m evaluating every line of the text, and asking if it can do more, or if it should be axed. More than a few have been in each category, and although this is taking a tremendous amount of time – I’m spending at least an hour and a half every day on it – I’m confident all of you will appreciate the end result. That said, getting everything done by the end of October means it’s going to come in really hot, and I’ll be keeping you posted.
However, the progress of the edits is not the only good news: I’ve got an artist working on the cover! At this point, I don’t want to show off any of the art because it is all in early stages, but even still, this is really coming together to be the best cover yet! Seeing these awesome pieces are really energizing me and keeping me focused too, so I’m looking forward to showing you the main work soon. I’ll probably even show some of the early concepts to describe some of the process I went through with the artist to arrive at the final design. And don’t worry, art fans: I’ll let you know who it is doing my art so you can find more of his/her work, just as soon as we can show off the cover.
That’s it for this month, stay tuned for more details soon!
Jon
