I’ve gotten opinions on this from a few friends and now it’s time to show it to the world.
Awakenings: War Drums will actually only be comprised of roughly the first 100,000 words (give or take a few chapters) of the current ongoing segment of Awakenings. I began to realize once I hit 165,000 words and wasn’t done yet that maybe what I had intended to be book two was perhaps really book two and book three.
To give you an idea of how long the first 100,000 words would be, if you go up through the end of Chapter 19 in the current version as uploaded, that would account for approximately 101,000 words of the book.
The current draft of books two and three combined is over 179,000 words and still climbing.
I will announce more details about book three (length, cover art, title, etc) at a later date. Book Four of Awakenings also does not have a title yet, but you can expect that to begin posting probably by May or June.
Of course, considering it’s me, plans may change…nothing, after all, is ever certain.
Awakenings: Book One is available where books are sold.
