In which we ramble on.
And by we, I mean me.

Cryptic Updates

10/19/2018

Last week, I promised that I’d update you on the state of my various projects! Here are those updates, in the form of cryptic but accurate statements.

Some of them are less cryptic than others.

Elder Empire: A man on a long journey may take many twists and turns, until even he cannot tell when he will arrive at his destination, but his journey continues regardless.

City of Light audio: The city’s gates groan as they prepare to open.

Soulsmith audio: In one turning of the moon, the world may change.

Underlord: The boy shifted in his chair, sweating. “I know I said I would stop crying wolf. I meant it, I swear. But it just rolls off the tongue so easily.” He straightened suddenly, stabbing his finger at the door. “LOOK OUT, A WOLF!” No one turned, and he shrank back. “Last time, I promise.”

Answering Questions!

Sorry it's been so long! As most of you guessed, I've spent the last couple of weeks locked in a cabin writing.

Also, apparently my assistant asked you on Facebook which questions you'd like to see me answer on here, so I'll do that!

(I have some content updates. They're coming. Next week, I swear I'll give you some information about the books. But I just got back, and I'm still getting organized, so in the meantime...)

A: Who is your favorite Disney character and why?
Disney owns too many characters now. I can't be certain my own characters aren't owned by Disney somehow. But my real answer: Carl Fredricksen from Up. I aspire to be him when I am older, but with an even more tragic backstory.

B: If you could only have one app on your phone, what would it be?
I don't know, Safari? I'm not very good at these social media-type questions. If www.WuxiaWorld.com had an iOS app, it would be my most-used app and the one I would keep above all others. I spend most of my time on Safari reading web novels.

C: What five things could you not live without?
1.) The four elemental crystals that keep nature in balance, without which all of humanity would be scoured from the face of the planet by constant natural disasters.
2.) The ring I inherited from my great-grandfather that tells me what every child wants for Christmas.
3.) My artificial heart.
4.) The collar that keeps me from transforming into a werewolf every night.
5.) Terraria on PC.

D: What is your favorite knock knock joke?
Knock knock.
Who's there?
To.
To who?
To whom.

E: When will Underlord be released?
This was by far the most common fan-submitted question.

...

The time approaches when ravens cry with the voices of men. I see a day when lakes and rivers reverse their flow, when dogs and cats merge into the perfect pets, and when the moon cackles and stares at the people below while blood leaks from the corner of its mouth. Ia! Ia! These are the signs that the time of Underlord is nigh!
