The day after a release day, part 25

So I had to count – novels only – to get the number of novels I’ve released to date. TWENTY-FIVE. Absolutely crazy! And I’m about to send number 26 (Invoking Infinity) off to the editor for story editing.

Yesterday was a lovely low-key release day for Awakening Infinity (Archivist 0) but with surprisingly strong sales numbers/ranking. Surprising, because I know a bunch of people had already read the book. I took a few screenshots of bestseller ribbons (B&N) and other fun things (Trending Now at Kobo) and I’ll share them on my social media for fun and to say thank you to everyone who won’t see this blog post.

Launching a new series is always a risk, but you’ve seemed to have enjoyed Dusk and Sisu’s prequel story, and I hope you love how their story continues to unfold.

As always, I couldn’t do this without you … I mean, I’d continue to write, of course. I can’t not create. But I wouldn’t have such a lovely life without your support, whether it is buying my books or getting them from the library. As well as all the conversation and reviews and recommendations.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I’ll be spending the next couple of days writing Kandy’s next novelette … with the fear that it’s actually a novella. And then I’ll start work on the next Archivist book – I have a ton of ideas but I have to figure out where each major reveal falls in the series overall. Lots of secrets that all must come to light at the perfect time!

Working out the structure for Kandy 0.5 aka In Less Than a Moment (Moments of the Adept Universe 0.3).

Synopsis:  Three months ago, I lost my foster sister, Sienna, to the darkness. As in blood magic and chaos and general mayhem. No one saw it until it was too late, but I should have. Now, I have a wounded heart and soul that I can’t even reveal to anyone around me, because I’m supposed to hate Sienna with the fiery passion of the justified. And I do. I just wish I didn’t feel so lost without her, so unsure of the path I thought I had carved for myself, and so outclassed by the powerful Adepts constantly by my side these days. I’m not even sure if they’re with me for my own protection or because my shiny new powers are rare and valuable. Assuming I ever figure out who or what I am, and how my magic actually works. Even chocolate can’t save the day every time … just most of the time. At least I’ve got that going for me.

This 82,000 urban fantasy is the second book in the Dowser Series by Meghan Ciana Doidge.
