Yes, it's been 2 years since I last posted here. Why? Well, part of that is writer's block, and part of that is due to simply being busy with life and a day job. I'm still not quite as famous as Stephen King or George R R Martin, and neither of them has responded to my email requests for charity funding so that I can quit my day job to write full time.
But, rest assured dear readers, I am making progress on the 5th book. It's taken awhile for me to find the story threads and start weaving again. Most of my writing over the last 2 years has been a few paragraphs or pages here and there, with large blocks of time spent staring at a blank page and then playing Candy Crush or watching Netflix. However, those few pages eventually added up the 100 page milestone, and I am currently in chapter 4. It feels good to finally have the engine running again, even if it's not quite at full steam.
I've also resolved to start posting here more often, even if it's stuff that has nothing to do with the series or my writing in general. I've been getting notifications on The Exxar Chronicles Facebook page that this site is getting more and more views. It's encouraging to know that I have readers out there who are checking in from time to time to see if there's anything new on the site. (And yes, I know, I need to finish writing that section on the Jha'Drok. I just hit some writer's block with that too, that's all.)
That's all for today. I'd like to finish a couple scenes before getting ready for work. :-)
