Last night while my wife was having a party with her
girlfriends I finished the rough draft of my third book. It is officially off to the editors!
It is a very satisfied feeling finishing you rough
draft. I know now with this being my
third book it is still a long ways from being finished, over, put to bed, and
completed. As I await the corrections of
my second novel which will make editing round number three of it, I realize it
takes a long time to actually complete a book.
With my deficiencies in English, I will only be as good as my editor.
It’s the sequel to “WHISPER.”
“Leviathan Deterrent” is written. Now it just needs cleaned up to make me look
like I’m not a third grader at a keyboard with a very vivid imagination. We still need to come up with cover art for
the book, it needs the corrections made when it comes back from editing,
formatting for creating an E-book, and for paperback versions through Create a
Space.
There will be plenty of work left to do, but none of that
can really ever be done until the book is written. I have read that 80% of people would love to
write a book. The number of people who
ever actually sit down and do it is very small.
This is my third one finished.
The really nice part is before I started focusing on finishing this book
I was working on book three and four at the same time. I am already up through Chapter 17 of my
fourth book so when I get back to it this coming week there is maybe only a quarter
of the book to finish on it. My fourth
book is the sequel to “No Rules Of Engagement.”
“Leviathan Deterrent” picks up just after where the first
book left off. It covers part of Wiley
and Lisa Randolph’s honeymoon as they travel from London, Paris, Madrid, Venice
and Rome. As those who have read my
first two books know nothing goes as planned and shit happens. As the rest of the crew from “Whisper” try to
finish cleaning up the mess from that mission, after Wiley and Lisa’s wedding,
all hell breaks loose as they realize someone has stolen Russell’s equipment
from the lab in the basement of the Pentagon.
The eight Marines who packed and carted it all out are found dead and
all the leads point to a dead man. Hopefully
the book will be released very shortly as I stated above there is still plenty
of work to be done to make it readable.
If you haven’t read “Whisper” yet and are interested in picking it up
mark your calendars for next week when it will be for free on Amazon Tuesday,
Wednesday and Thursday. Just in time for
Daddy’s who got Kindles for Father’s Day looking to load it up with new
exciting reads.
