GHOST IN THE TOWER progress and Nadia Moran update

I’m now on Chapter 15 of 23 of GHOST IN THE TOWER. Entering the final third of the book!

I wasn’t sure if I would have time to write another CLOAK & GHOST book this year, but I should be able to manage it! I’m now on Chapter 1 of 10 of CLOAK & GHOST: REBEL CELL, and I should be able to get that out in December.

I don’t think I’ll give away REBEL CELL when GHOST IN THE TOWER comes out. Instead, I’ll do something different. In previous years, I used to write a Caina short story that I would give away to newsletter subscribers for Christmas. Or shortly before Christmas, since people are usually traveling around the week of Christmas and don’t check their email. So instead, I’ll write CLOAK & GHOST: REBEL CELL and give it away for free to newsletter subscribers before Christmas.

(I should note that some readers very strongly did not care for the crossover idea in CLOAK & GHOST, where Nadia meets a version of Caina who lives on the Earth of CLOAK GAMES. However, quite a lot of people bought CLOAK & GHOST: BLOOD RING and CLOAK & GHOST: LOST GATE even though I gave away the books for free with my newsletter, which is definitely encouragement to write more!)

Writing REBEL CELL will have an additional bonus as a warm up for Nadia’s next stand-alone adventure, CLOAK OF DRAGONS, which I hope to start writing in early 2019.

Needless to say, you should subscribe to my newsletter and get CLOAK & GHOST: REBEL CELL for free when it comes out next month!
