July 27th 2026 Update

I currently have Tempered in Battle up to approximately 120,000 words, and it’s currently going strong. I don’t know how long the book will end up being, so I don’t have an estimate of when I’ll be done, unfortunately. Either way, my current plan is to get it done as quick as I can, then edit the first book for publication. Whether I break it into more volumes or not is still up in the air, though. I’ll definitely keep you all informed on that part.

I’ve got a few things I’d like to do, such as ordering art for the collection of Obelisk of Blood, Temple of the Sun, and Circle of Ashes, but unfortunately I haven’t been able to decide on a good scene for it. I half-wish I’d chosen a different cover for Circle of Ashes, as the current cover feels like it’d have been ideal for the collection. I’ll keep considering it as I try to get everything in order.

And to be clear about future plans, my next project is a return to Talyn’s Saga, so there’s that to look forward to as well! Anyway, that’s all I have to share this week!
