March Update

Greetings, everyone.

The Voided Man #7 – The Override System – comes out a week from Sunday. When the Valkyrie Program was established in the 22nd and 23rd Centuries, a back door may or may not have been created that allows control of all of the starships, wherever they may be. If such a system exists, it might open up all kinds of possibilities, or problems, or both. Jack narrates the story.

Book 8 – The Eight Colors of the Moonbow - will be out on May 11. It’s finished, and it will be available for pre-order as soon as Book 7 launches. Maestro narrates, and it’s back to the Potato for a significant part of that story.

Book 9 is drafted, and I’m about halfway through editing. It will be out in late June, and to reveal the title for the first time outside of my family and my writing group, it will be called The Fields of Glass Next Door. Annabelle narrates, and there is a lot of backstory on John and Annabelle in the days before John became Prisoner Number One, and then the book turns to a new adventure.

I’ve spent a fair amount of time writing about the distant future lately, and Book 10 will look at the universe’s distant past. That’s what I’m working on now, and I just finished a good chapter that features a strange bicycle race on a strange planet yesterday.

Before I go, a quick note for fans of The Clock and the Candles. I haven’t retired that series, but I will probably not expand it in 2025. My current plan is to work on a new story for Gwen, Roland, Xerx, and all the rest sometime in ’26 or ’27.

That’s it for this time.

Thank you for taking an interest in my writing.
