I generally have at least three or four projects going at once... The other day I opened my writing folder and counted. If I finished every single book I have technically in the works, I would have another nineteen novels on top of the six that I already have finished. I'll highlight a few that I'm in the middle of right now.
1: Rabid Lands 2; Maya's Requiem.
This is the sequel to Rabid Lands, a unique twist on the zombie genre, telling a tale of infection from the perspective of small animals as they battle a rabies mutation in the forest. The lead characters are Maya; a rat, and Chuck and Charlie; both guinea pigs. The sequel takes place almost immediately after the conclusion of the first and is the story of Maya getting revenge on the humans for creating the strain of virus that was released into the forests water supply, creating the monsters that they had to battle in the first. This is another super action packed zombie tale, but with tails of their own.
2. The Isle of Children.
This is a dark, gothic fantasy about a young boy who escapes an orphanage and is lost at sea. When his boat reaches land, its an island inhabited by children that have been "rescued" by an older man they refer to as Father. But just like Father, the island holds dark secrets, and the creature that stalks the woods surrounding the mansion, feeding upon the innocence of youth at night is just the beginning. I am taking visual inspiration for this book from Guillermo Del Toro's film style. It's dark, gritty and has a tainted hint of fairytale to it. This is going to be another really good one :-)
3. Dawn of the Magi (Working Title).
I have yet to create the subtitle for this piece, but have already started framing it out and building the world and characters within. This will be a prequel to the first book, taking place a thousand years before the events that unfolded in Dawn of the Magi. I will be diving into the Magi and who they are, and the events that led up to the First War of Magic. This will be another epic tale the level of the first.
I also like I said, have another dozen that I have already started framing out and even begun writing. Stay tuned!
