Might as well: I haven’t gotten the first chapters back for TINSEL RAIN, so I can’t work on that. And I shouldn’t move forward on the other projects until the money clears on the Kickstarter, which usually will be about two weeks. GHOSTS ON AN ALIEN WIND currently clocks in at just below sixty thousand words, so I need to add about another twenty thousand or so before I go find an alpha reader for it.
Yeah, a new alpha reader for this book. It’s science fiction horror, you see – and it would drive my wife up the wall to see how bad the science is. She won’t alpha read my space opera serial novel, either, assuming it ever finishes.
Anyway, I suspect that the first three chapters of GoaAW will be this month’s Patreon story. The current short story’s crapped out, too. Dunno why. I should give it a month or two to cool down.
Iiinteresting.

If you’re still looking once you do get those extra 20,000 words in, let us know. Might be I’ll convince myself to volunteer.
I’m not volunteering, because I am just not able to commit the time necessary, but what does an alpha reader do?
My wife usually approaches it by flagging everything that doesn’t make sense. If you think the beta drafts of novels need work, well… 🙂
I’m always happy to kibitz but you know what you’re getting…
