Just a little writing update:
Frostbound Vol 1 is now finished! If you're after something complete to read, and you've enjoyed other stuff that I've done, please consider checking it out!
I've also added the first chapter/preview of my new web-serial progression fantasy project, 'The Shadow Binder' to read for free over on my Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/DRKing), so you can head over there and check it out if that sounds like something that might interest you.
A word on Inheritance:
Work on 'The Crow's Eye' is ongoing, but slow. In all honesty, trying to balance writing with my job and family is difficult at the best of times. Trying to split that small amount of writing time that I get between fanfics that will never contribute to me achieving what I want to with my writing (doing it full time) and original works, is even trickier. As much as I would love to do both, I have to be as pragmatic and realistic with my time as possible. Writing Inheritance is so much fun, but gets me no closer to accomplishing my goals.
Original writing needs to be a priority.
Now, that's not to say I'm not working on Inheritance at all--far from it--I just want to be as open and honest with you guys about where my time is going and how much of it I can afford to spend on Inheritance.
This year, I'm looking to make a big push in terms of releasing books and trying to gather book sales/patreon supporters so that I can perhaps begin to reduce my hours at work and give myself a little more writing time each week - if you've enjoyed my stories, and would like to support me in that way I would be immensely grateful, as I am to the handful that have already begun to. The more time I can buy for myself, the more time I can allocate to Inheritance and all of my other work.
Thank you so much for your ongoing readership. Getting to read your comments and talk with you all is a privilege, albeit a weird one! (seriously, some of y'all's comment threads are *weeeeiird*)
