Many of you have already gotten your Patreon copy, but for those of you didn't the link's below.

I received an interesting review on the most recent book, which gave me an idea.
"This book(Codename: Freedom - World Quest) has actually made this series surpass Underworld, in my view, which I never thought I'd say!" ~Paul Richards
So lets have at it!
Codename Freedom vs Underworld!
What say ye?

2019-09-02 15:17:21 +0000 UTC View PostHey there!
Editing is coming along really well for Codename: Freedom - World Quest. I get the edits back from my editor today, so I'll be able to merge my edits with hers. I expect the process to take two to three days. It's also the longest book I've written so I expect long hours... If I turn into a zombie, I might make a vlog. I wouldn't eat the brains of my family, but my neighbors ar...

Book Update
I have an update from my editor. She won't have Codename: Freedom done until the 26th. I should have expected this since its 177k words. :( That means I'll only have 3-4 days to work on edits after I get it back if I want to finish it before DragonCon. So, there's been a change of plans. I was hoping to get it back in a week, which would a...

Here's the work in progress for the cover of book 3. I'm not having them go for accuracy, but to get the feel of Lucius facing the bandit fortress.
What do you guys think?

I received stage two details and my official invitation in my inbox later the same day. The stage two information didn’t give a lot of information on how the next stage would work, but it went deeper into how the war for galactic resources would. Politicians from Earth and the Ekse...

Cheers!
“Barrell. You alright?” I said, private messaging him.
“Yeah. It’s over?” He replied, breathing heavy.
“We did it.”

Pulses of some of the strongest psionics I’d ever felt bombarded us as we ran toward the Shadow King’s lair. Vines glowing in crimson reached out and wrapped around the edges of the entryway like blood-vipers straining to stretch the entrance even wider than it already was.
The next chapter for Codename: Freedom will be tomorrow. It will be a big one. It might end up being two. We are only about three to four chapters from being done. There's still some surprises I have waiting for you guys.
I hope to have Book 3 published sometime on the week of the 19th.
In the next week or two, I'm going to start Underworld chapters for book four. There won't...
2019-08-02 19:53:59 +0000 UTC View PostThe next Codename: Freedom chapter is coming out tomorrow. There could possibly be two! The first one is 4,700 words. :D
Btw, we've reached 150k words in book 3, and book 2 was only 139k in total. We still have a way to go.
There's been a delay with the cover art because my artist is backed up. It should still be available in August and ready for the release. We're getting close now...
2019-07-26 16:54:50 +0000 UTC View PostThe next Codename chapter should be up tomorrow. I almost have it where I want it but it still needs some love. I could possibly have two up tomorrow, so keep an eye out. There's a whole bunch of stuff about to happen at once. Some surprises as well.
Cheers!

2019-07-01 11:29:53 +0000 UTC View PostThe next Codename chapter is almost finished. Lets just say that the Ultimate Advancements will finally be revealed. :D These will tie into the future of the series even after Freedom.
I'm feeling better than I was last week. Getting a lot more done and I hope to have not one, but three covers for you guys to check out in about a month.

I wanted to let everyone know real quick that the chapter should be up tomorrow. We've had an issue with the septic tank the last couple days and finally got it fixed. It was, messy... We can finally use the toilet again without a problem, so that's good. The chapter itself is just about there. I've been able to write, just not like I normally do. I thought I'd have it done, but it's just not t...

It's still a work in process, but here's the current decor for the office. I was also going to put up some art behind my computer desk, but it's the wall with cinder block to the outside so I need different screws. I'm thinking about collecting movie posters and rotating them. Any you recommend? I'm go...
2019-06-15 13:42:26 +0000 UTC View PostI'm working on the next chapter of Codename: Freedom as we speak, but it might not be up until tomorrow. We finally get to see Achilles again, but also I have a surprise for you guys. The action is going to be picking up very soon.
The office is starting to come together. I've gotten some movie posters framed and looking to get some anime and game inspired ones. Pictures coming soon.

There hasn't been a day this week that something hasn't come up that we needed to do with the house. Thankfully, closing is today, so most of the paperwork will be coming to a close. Of course, packing and moving is in the works, but those things I can sched...

The next CF chapter should be up tomorrow. I was wanting to get it up today, but there is a lot of nuance I'm still working on to fit with the following chapters.

I wanted to apologize if it seems I have been preoccupied recently. We are in the process of closing on a house and it is stealing random chunks of my time all over the place. There are some huge benefits to the new place though, because I'll have an official office that is closed off from the rest of the house. Less interruptions! I will also be able to set up a small st...

I wanted to let everyone know what the delay is. I've never been a big outliner, but I've always had a list of bullet points I've used as I write. This book is going to be different out of necessity. There are a lot more things happening than in any other book I've written, and I know how tedious politics can get. I've actually working t...
