Monthly Blog #3

 Hey Everyone, I know I'm making this post two days early for a monthly blog. I have made some more progress for the Tale of Ælfric series and, in doing so, I found the series might have one book left to go rather than the two I said in the last post. I say this with slight hesitation as there are events I'd like to see written that will help reach the ending I have decided on. If this assumption on my part is correct that this will be the final book in the series, it will be longer than the previous books so far. Given how short the books have turned out so far, I doubt this will be any problem. Where book two and three are 60k words each, I expect the final to be closer to 100k-120k words to wrap up the story. As of right now, this is the most I can say for the series, I'm only 5,500 words into the book right now so there is more than enough room for large changes to occur I did not expect by this point.

While it does sadden me a bit to know that it wasn't accepted, I'm, in a way, excited to make it into a book. The idea itself is inspired by the book series Little Fuzzy by H. Beam Piper, and is the kind of idea which could be expanded into a series if I work out the sequel books correct. As to the Tale of Ælfric series itself, I'm coming with it slowly. It's just taking a little longer right now as I place more of my focus into my final two classes. After the classes end, I'll be able to place a greater emphasis on my writing, which I'll be able to finish the rough draft to the last two books by the end of next year at the lasted (I hope). The fourth book in the series may see a little difficulty as I do know how I...
