GHOST IN THE COUNCIL rough draft done!
I am pleased to report that the rough draft of GHOST IN THE COUNCIL is done!
At 110,000 words, it will be the longest book to date in the GHOST NIGHT series, and the longest Caina book since GHOST IN THE WINDS back in 2016.
Next up, I need to take two days to do some book formatting work and setup for some audio projects I want to pursue in 2020 (including a very large one that I have codenamed “Project Colossus” for reasons of amusing myself). Then I’m going to write a GHOSTS short story called GHOST CANDLE that I will give away for free to newsletter subscribers when GHOST IN THE COUNCIL comes out. GHOST CANDLE will be the first Caina short story I’ve written since 2016! It will be set chronologically between GHOST IN THE MAZE and GHOST IN THE HUNT.
If all goes well, GHOST IN THE COUNCIL should be out in early January. (And as an added bonus, I think the audio version of GHOST IN THE COWL will be out shortly thereafter.)
Tune on Friday to see the cover image for GHOST IN THE COUNCIL!

Was project Colossus the space opera one? I remember you saying something about a space opera series many moons ago. If it’s a big book or series remember to maximise profits and readership to,
Overcharge per novel, hardcopy prices
Delay each release by about 5/8 years
Have a 50 pound ninja babe who is better than everyone else without training or working out
Last but not least spend massive amounts of time on twitter bemoaning political/social issues. Does wonders for productivity best viewed from a distance.
On a more serious note thanks for the years entertainment.
I just might disregard some of that writing advice. 🙂
“Project Colossus” is a really big fantasy audiobook. It’s about 97% done – just have to wait for that last little bit, some formatting, and hopefully it should be ready in March or April.
Yay!
I am very excited about the new Ghost book, but the short story is taking quite a jump back in time.
I am thinking it must be additional backstory on one of the protagonists. Can’t wait to find out!
