More of a hint on my mystery project.

Today, I decided to take a whack at NaNoWriMo. For those of you not quite aware of it, NaNoWriMo is an annual challenge where thousands of writers try to write 50k words in the thirty days of November.

It's pretty epic.

I actually wasn't going to do NaNo this year, but then I realized that I really really REALLY want to finish at least one more rough draft this year.

And yes, it's part of the War of Six Crowns series. This, for those of you who've been reading my goal posts on The Five Year Project, is the Mystery Project I've been working on for most of this year already.

Still not going to say more about it, because I know that once you've read the second book, you're going to get a serious buzz out of this one.

But for now, a song that very nicely sums up the story and the emotions in it:

Progress!

My goodness. I can't believe it's October already. I mean seriously. We're a third of a way through that too. Time's seriously flying at the moment.

It's been a while since the last time I posted. For good reason. I started a new business, which means that my available time has been severely limited.

So the good thing (especially for you, if you've read The Vanished Knight and want to find out what happens next) is that I'm spending most of my available time to get TVK and The Heir's Choice ready for publishing.

The not-so-good-news is that the time constraints I'm facing means that I probably won't be able to publish at the end of October as previously announced.

At the moment, I'm waiting for the covers, as well as for my final beta readers to let me know if THC is clean enough to send in for copy edits. After that, I have copy edits and formatting, then both books will be out there for the whole world to see.

Still. We're close.

In related news, I've finished (I think) the rough draft to book three in this series. Which means I'm right on schedule to publish it next year.

Since I love this song and it's perfect for the place I left off for book 3, I thought I'd share.
