FORGE FAQ
Greetings, gentle readers! There have been several questions in the wake of Forge's release, so I figured it was time for a Forge FAQ.
Forge Frequently Asked Questions1. Is Forge the final book in the series?No. Resolve the fourth and final book in the series will be coming out in 2020. The first draft is already written.
2. Weren't you going to finish the series with Forge?That was the plan, and I drafted Forge and Resolve as one messy, messy draft which clocked in at well over a quarter million words. It was too many words. While digging into rewrites, I realized I had, unsurprisingly, drafted two books, not one.
Originally, lo these many years ago, I had planned on writing The Children of Man as a quartet. I had hoped I could somehow finish it as a trilogy, but, it turns out, it is going to take me four books to tell this story.
3. Noooo. We've already waited forever. How long are we going to have to wait for book four?My plan is to release Resolve within the next year in 2020. March is looking like a realistic release target, but it might be next summer due to some production constraints that are out of my control. 4. How long are we really going to have to wait for Resolve?I know you probably have very little reason to believe it will actually be coming out in 2020 given the deadlines I've missed over the last three years. I cannot fully explain the different place I'm in now due to years of therapy and having started medication for my c-PTSD, GAD, and ADHD. I say with no hyperbole that meds in conjunction with EMDR therapy have been absolutely life-changing for me.
I have never been this consistently productive in my entire life. I asked my psychiatrist, after I started meds in the spring, if I had really spent my entire life having to work ten times harder than other people to get the same things done. And she said she hated to say yes, but yes.5. Is there a paperback version of Forge?Yes! (Amazon Links Here) The kindle and paperback pages should, hopefully, merge within the week. Other retailers will start carrying the paperback soon. I'll update once I have live links.
I may add more to this FAQ as repeated questions come in!
