So, if you're just checking out the blog, thanks for stopping by. This particular edition of the blog will keep you up-to-date on my actual writing process. Yes, I'm starting this blog late, but that's okay!

Currently, as of 8-17-25, I am in the latter half of chapter 28 out of what is looking will be 29 chapter plus an epilogue. Wait, an epilogue you say? Really? You're going to put an epilogue in there?

That's the plan as of right now. An epilogue, if you're not familiar is just a way at the end of a story to describe what happens to the characters after the ending... basically. Now, I don't necessarily agree with having epilogues all the time, but for some stories they can be quite useful and some times even necessary. Mainly, the stories you'll find with a useful epilogue are those with big-picture settings and events. The epilogue is a great way to explain how the readers handle the aftermath of whatever events have occurred - good or no. That being said, it is not set in stone that I will be including an epilogue, but that is where I'm heading currently. Things do change tho :-)

If you follow my other blog editions on my universe and worldbuilding, then this edition may also be a good quick read for you if you're interested in pursuing more about my book.

If you're interested in becoming a beta reader for my material, please let me know! I'm looking for as many as I can get. Check out my "debut novel" synopsis on the site and just put your email in the contact form if you want to check it out.

Look back here for updates every few days :-)
