Marvin Whiteknight's Blog

 I've gotten several complaints about someone pretending to be me on Instagram and Facebook.

This is my real Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/AuthorMarvinKnight

And this is my (newly made to deal with this) Instagram page: https://www.instagram.com/marvinknightbooks/

If you are receiving DM's from someone not from those accounts (especially if they are trying to sell you something) it isn't me!

Hi guys,

Spellheart 9: King of the Satyrs is finally done!

Sorry for the wait on this one guys, but trust me I've been hard at work!

I finished this up about two months ago and it's been waiting in the wings for me to finally get it out the door.

The wait for book 10 should hopefully not be as long as the wait for this one was. I've already gotten a little done with it.

Next up is audiobooks for Amazon Apocalypse 1 and Paladin of the Sigil 4.

Then Amazon Apocalypse 2 will come out (hopefully before the end of the year -- I am 150k words into the rough draft, so about 75% done with drafting, but still early on in editing.)

After that, it's either Spellheart 10 or Amazon Apocalypse 3. Really depends on which I'm feeling more.

I would also like to do another new series, but that will have to wait until Summer of next year when my publication schedule is clearer.

PS: Suggest in the comments what I can do to make marvinknightbooks.com better. Not really sure what to add. Maybe an art gallery from the books?

The site is still under construction, but eventually it will replace this blog completely.

 I'm alive!

Amazon Apocalypse did well, and I'm roughly 30k words into book 2.

Spellheart 9 is out with beta readers (finished it about two weeks ago.) It will be edited and awaits a September release (hopefully.)

Paladin of the Seraph's audiobook is in recording with Jessica Threet. I'm not sure when it will be done yet, but I will post an update when I have a date.

Amazon Apocalypse 1 is getting an audiobook, currently in recording by Jack Douglas and Jessica Threet.

 

Plan for the rest of this year:

Spellheart 9 releaseFinish and (hopefully) release Amazon Apocalypse 2.Start Spellheart 10

 

Early next year:

Release Spellheart 10Amazon Apocalypse 3New series (either urban fantasy or another cultivation isekai like Spellheart. Depends on what plays better with Patreon readers.) 

 

At some point I want to give being a webnovelist a shot again too, so I might put one series on RoyalRoad or Scribblehub for free. I tried it years ago back when RoyalRoad was small and had a decent following, but life got in the way and you couldn't make money off webnovels back then, so I didn't have the motivation to stay at it past 100 chapters or so.

Nowadays it's different, and I have enough books on Amazon that posting a series for free might help sell them. Not sure, but it might be fun to experiment.

Also: https://www.marvinknightbooks.com/ is a thing now.

I haven't transitioned everything over yet, but its a work in progress. Eventually there will be a bunch of links, character art, and a few free short stories.

 May 25'th!

Paladin 4 is coming out next week! I will probably make more posts when it actually goes live, but enough people on here have asked me for a firm release date than I figured it was time to give one.

I've been getting a lot of writing done, but mostly scattered between a couple different things. I hope to get it all to you soon!

Hey everybody! I'm still hard at work. Dropping in to let everyone know that Paladin of the Spirit (Paladin of the Sigil Book 3) is now live on audible!

I have gotten a ton of release date requests for this one, so I'm glad it's finally out there.

Get it here:

https://www.audible.com/pd/B0BQPC8T29

 Quick update: Paladin 3 is in Audible's system, and I'm just waiting for them to approve it. It will launch the moment they are done with it, so some of you guys might know when it's live before I do.

Let me know if you spot it go live so I can do code giveaways and whatnot.

Not much other news to share until the audiobook goes live. I'm going to be laying low for a bit building up a book backlog.

I have big chunks of a lot of novels done, but nothing I'm releasing this month. Paladin 4, Spellheart 9, and two other potential series are in the works, both with several hundred pages done.

I'm hoping 2023 will be a good year with lots of content when this stuff finally hits storefronts near you. Until then, I shall fade into the shadows all mysterious-like.

Special thanks to Big Fan for reminding me again. No other news from me at the moment, other than the fact that I'm working hard to get the next set of books out.

I shall now return to hibernation...

 

Paladin of the Sigil Book 3: Paladin of the Spirit is live now (or should be soon, depending on your location.)

Join Darren again as he and his women battle their way through Hell. There, he shall raise an army unlike any other and gather the power he needs to defeat his true foe, the Prime Saint Kalaziel.

Thanks everyone for being patient! This one took a while, but it ended up being another pretty big book at just under 210k words!

Jessica Threet is supposed to start recording it tomorrow, so hopefully the audiobook will come out much faster this time.

After this release I'm going to focus on getting a new series out the door, since I don't want to close all my stuff off at once.

The tentative release order after this will be:

Spellheart 8 on Audio.Paladin 3 on Audio.Amazon Apocalypse 1 on Ebook.Spellheart 9 on Ebook.Some audiobook stuff here probably.Paladin 4 (Series hopefully complete)Amazon Apocalypse 2 on Ebook.Spellheart 10 (Series probably complete)Another new series, either Kitsune Cultivation, Long Live the Emperor, or Deathwished. I've been playing with all three series and think you'll find any of them fun. It's just a matter of picking which one sees the light of day and which wither away in the shadows, never to be written.

 

 Thanks for reading, everyone!
