Oh this fucking rocks

I mean, come March I'll have written and published 1.5 million words in 4 years... I don't think I can really increase that pace 😅

I don't think that's how my brain works 😅 it will be 1.4 million published words in a few months and that inner critic always jumps up. I figure it as part of the process 🤷🏻♂️

There are a few things riiiiight at the end that have slowed down production and we want to make sure everything is in place before we put it up for sale 🙌

Oh, I wasn't actually asking! that was meant to be someone asking the Tau battlesuit pilot... Really should have made that clear 😅

Of course – thank *you*! Tau are a perfect choice for this as well.
Are you a man or a women?
I am Fire Caste 🤷🏻♂️

The purples and yellows on that battlesuit are so fucking clean. Gorgeous work 💜

There's no shame. We all move at our own pace. There are quite a few people I know who laugh at my wordcounts 😅

Hey, man. 6k words a week will get you 60k words in 2.5 months, and a full novel in 5 months. That's nothing to be sniffed at!
Sorry for the maths mansplain, but I think sometimes we need to be clearly told how great we're doing!

Oh I've had some 10k word months, believe you me. Everyone at their own pace ❤️

KRYSTLE! I feel like I've not seen your face in 27 years!

Haha yeah, I didn't factor in my family visiting New Zealand, my tour, and the whole 'pregnancy' aspect.
I'm aiming for a March release date, with the majority of the book already having been passed through beta, and now in copyediting.

Of course there are politics here. What I meant though is this platform isn't defined by politics. It is simply a microcosm amongst many.
Some people on twitter view BlueSky as the liberal version of Truth Social – which it absolutely isn't 🤷🏻♂️

Never heard of you either, Stephen.

Not sure if trolling, or genuinely think I'm calling myself epic 🤔

It's a lot of words 😅 I'm thinking the series will hit about 2 million 🙌

You have no idea how specifically exciting this comment is. Bringing the dragons to the masses 🤟
It's a challenging thing to scale the power of dragons so it fits in the mechanics of a functioning world, so I'm damn happy it's worked for you!

Any praise from a Malazan fan is well earned and graciously received ❤️

Well hello there, Dr. Chase 👋
That's so damn good to hear! I was hoping you'd find that extra time with the characters you were looking for – those deeper moments. I hope the last 600 pages go just as well!

"Truth and Courage" ⚔️

An anti-AI clause is now the first non-negotiable I have for any contract.
No generative AI to be used during the cover creation or development process, or in the manuscript, or translation (for foreign rights). No training use for ML.
It has to be a standard inclusion now 🤷🏻♂️
