Hey guys, I know it's been a while since I posted a new blog. However, I thought I'd make a brief post this morning to give you all an update. I'm nearly done my program but will be taking another immediately after that. So, my time is going to still be divided for a while. It's unclear how that might affect the release of Dark Jealousy. As of now, I'm working hard on it in my spare time.
The 2nd draft of Dark Jealousy is nearly completed. Currently, I'm standing at 82k words and have about a chapter and a half left to type out. Then it's time to edit, and rewrite the final draft before it's ready to format.
After Dark Jealousy
My plans for after Dark Jealousy is completed. Well, guys there is a third book in the Sheriff Dawson series coming. But, I won't be working on that next. I have a prequel lined up, and over the next few weeks, I will be character building for that, and making an "Outline" that's in quotes because as many of you know I'm a "Plantser" I plot the outline and character build but I write by the seat of my pants and let the characters direct me.
The Prequel takes place while Sheriff Dawson is still living at home. The MC will be his father and his involvement in the investigation, and will be loosely based on the Mispec Massacre. A true event
that happened in New Brunswick in the year, 1857. I might make some changes like location etc to help it fit my books and to flow with the main storyline. In any case, the prequel will be written and released before the third book. It's going to be really exciting and we will get a glimpse into Sheriff Dawson's back story a little bit.
Social Media & July's Content
I have decided to focus on three of my Social Media accounts. Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube. As for Twitter and Facebook, I will be trying to post at least once a day. YouTube, hopefully once a week. Sometime today, or tomorrow I will be updating my content again. This is so I won't be posting the same stuff as previous months. I call it July's content but I will be using the content immediately.
Guilty Deceptions
I'm working on getting Guilty Deceptions out there in the world. I'm planning on donating a few copies to the local library, and I'm hoping to get a few copies out to Dog Eared Bookstore in Oromocto, NB.
My best promotion for Guilty Deceptions is word of mouth, so please tell everyone and anyone about my book after you read it.
Until Next Time,
D.C.
