J. Arthur Klein Sorry for the late response. I am planning a sequel to Extra Credit. I don't have a definitive release data and fully admit I am a very slow writer when compared to many in the genre, but I hope to be able to really dig into it soon!
J. Arthur Klein Well.. summer is a ways off so.... no clue.
J. Arthur Klein I was reading so many stories and wanted to read one about a particular type of character and was unable to find one... so I wrote one.
J. Arthur Klein Reading good stories, playing games. Sometimes just random ideas pop into my brain from the ether.
J. Arthur Klein Currently my focus is on Sosaku Online book 2. Working title "Shattered Sands" which takes place immediately after the events of book one and features the same characters from the first book.

In addition to that I have another standalone book that I previously completed my first draft of that I just got back from my editor and need to work on revisions for. It's another slice of life VR MMORPG story about a man diving into the latest game to make some extra money in order to keep his dream house after some budged cuts have made things tight.

There are some others in progress too, but nothing developed enough to talk about.
J. Arthur Klein Write, write, write. No matter how bad you think it is, let it flow.
Write what makes your heart sing.
Write what gets your juices flowing.
J. Arthur Klein Sharing my stories with others? Hopefully bringing them some sense of entertainment and joy.
J. Arthur Klein Start a new project to get my brain meat warmed up once again. Play some video games, or read.
J. Arthur Klein My mind was transported back in time into my high school self, memory intact. Some say they would die for an opportunity to do it all over again, but not me, for I knew that if I didn't retrace my steps exactly my son would never be born.
J. Arthur Klein That's a hard one. There are so many quality fantasy and sci-fi worlds out there... But in the long run I'd probably aim for something like Faerun, where there's magic, sorcery, tangible gods and everything that goes along with it.

I'd like to say id master the arcane, but my personality is probably more in line with a Cleric than a wizard. Plus my hands cant even deal with chords on a guitar let alone master the digital gymnastics wizards require.
