Not a lot of updates. Between the family trip to the Keys, and a trip to see a set of grandparents, I didn't get much writing time. That's okay... sometimes I need a break from writing as much as I do from work. I did write one chapter, so not zero progress. I sent what I have to my mother, still my biggest cheerleader... the beginning and end of Secrets. She had questions about how it all connects to Guardian League. Maybe I hadn't said this before, but there's another series lurking between Thaumatropic Roots and Guardian League. It'll make more sense after you finish Thaumatropic Roots, so I'll say more then. I've got the outline of the next series in my head. But if there was a minor character in Thaumatropic Roots who you would like to see more of, let me know. I've received a fair amount of requests for Trentius (and Smoky). Hope they pull through Secrets... mwahahah! Another question... um, asking for a friend. ;) Have you ever read a book where you thought the villain kind of had a point? Not one where you’re supposed to align with the villain, or the villain is super-sexy so you lust after him/her despite their villainy. One where the villain is definitely the bad guy, but you get it. Send me your favorite. And let me know if I can’t share. Yup, I'll keep it short this newsletter. Hope you're all having a great summer! All books by Steven J. Morris Indie Author Showcase Previous Newsletters

Click here to rejoin family content. Book 4 is well underway now. I took a different approach this time and wrote the first 4 chapters, then the final 5 chapters. The ending has weighed on me for so long that I just had to get it done. So now I just need the silly midling bits and it'll go out the door. :D Frankly, the parts I have written are missing things. Bits that it is hard to tie up in action scenes without distracting. It'll be fun and interesting to work that out. I'm still trying to...
Click here to rejoin family content. Oddly enough, the twice-a-month cadence for newsletters won out over once-a-month, by one vote. So twice a month is borderline. Maybe I'll skip a newsletter once in a while. And more people liked seeing the indie book options than didn't, so I'll keep them, but I set up ways to opt out of both the non-writing updates AND the indie book showcase. So you should be able to click on your choices in an email, set your preferences, and future emails will be...
Click here to rejoin family content. Since release of Secrets of Deara, I'm pausing on Shepherds of Truth while I try to get my marketing game in better order. I'm considering restructuring the emails to be once a month instead of every two weeks. Let me know your thoughts. (I know I have a couple of folks who love the family updates, or at least they have in the past.) How often do you like getting newsletters? Two a month has been good Switch to once a month Just send me info about sales...
