Well...wtf?

IO's turned out to be a blunder and the mistake is totally mine. We're going back to formula with regards to the format and plan to release it as a full novel. The "comic book" format idea was my brainchild and I have to take that one in the chin. I apologize to anyone that's invested in the project so far, but it's stupid to not admit a mistake. I still think the story is good, but the serialized format has to go.

The good news, it's going to be a fat book, planned for release in the Summer of 2015 and full of the good stuff that you've enjoyed so far. We're looking at a 2.99 pricepoint so you get your money's worth.

BUT I CAME HERE ABOUT BLACKJACK!

This is a Blackjack blog, isn't it? It is, and the news on Blackjack is even more promising. I'm 80% done. Yeah, you notice how I haven't made any posts at all in the last few months? That's why (yeah, right). In any case, I'm through to the final act and I should have that ready in the next few weeks. Then my editors turn it to mush and show me how I don't know how to write.

The best part is that I've rediscovered Apogee and she's in it almost as much as Blackjack, and I've found a way to write in alot of the old favorites, including Superdynamic and Battle, Epic and...yes...Atmosphero.

The plan? To get back to my end of Q1 release like the other two books, so March or April. While the edit monkeys do their thing, I'll finish IO (I'm 2/3's finished there), then we pivot away from those two projects for either Heart of the Jungle or a new project called The Seeker. After that, Blackjack 4.

Well, I can dream, can't I?
