The Universe is Now Made of Cookies

11/2/2013

I have heard your voices and made my decision: I'll be leading off the Chronicles with a story exploring Helgard, the Tower of Winter.

This means that those of you who voted for Option A were correct, and shall be spared.

On a related note, I know that some of you were concerned about the delivery of the Chronicles through Kindle Serials, particularly those of you who live in the United Kingdom, where apparently serials don't exist.

In that vein, I have an announcement. An announcement that I will delay until next week.

I am going to spend this next seven days in a furious writing frenzy, and in one week I will make an announcement with regards to The Traveler's Gate Chronicles. Stay tuned; same time, same channel.

Incidentally, every second is a constant battle to resist playing Cookie Clicker. Send help.

Read your books, mainly because they were free to borrow with Amazon Prime. Turned out I really liked them and so had to buy the Kindle editions. I will not buy the paperback versions though. I require this trilogy to be in hardcover so that it can have a proper place on my bookshelf next to The Wheel of Time, Dragonriders of Pern, Dune, The Dark Tower. and others I have found worthy. I will be keeping a (crimson) eye out. If you really are an up and coming author, and not just a Richard Bachman type pen name for someone already rich and famous, I hope when you inevitably do become rich and famous, you stay (mostly) grounded and don't become an Incarnation. I am very excited to have a new author to follow and look forward to more of your work and more of the world you have created for us.

I'm honored, Becky! I promise I'm not secretly someone famous and more talented, though. If that were true, the books would be better (:

If I were you, I wouldn't buy the paperbacks either. The ebooks say the same thing, and they're much cheaper. That said--and this is FAR from decided, so don't quote me on this--my graphic designer and I had been talking about possibly doing a limited-run hardcover omnibus for the trilogy.

You know, for fun. I think that would be neat.

And if I do become an Incarnation, I promise I won't destroy your hometown.

Playing cookie clicker right now actually, 388 billion cps. I'll probably double that on my next reset.

I just reset the day before yesterday at 680 billion CpS.

Then I had to stop. I was spending way too much time playing Cookie Clicker. The reason I even started playing in the first place is because it was something I could leave on in the background while I was writing, and it would gain cookies with or without my supervision.

But I don't have the self-control. I am a weak man.
