The illness is still hanging around, so it’s been another editing-focused week. I’ve now finished my edits for The Prince and the Fool and sent it off for a professional edit.I’ve also been revisiting Dragon Squadron (RAF Dragon Corps, Book 1), going through the manuscript and tightening things up.On the creative side, I’ve written a short piece of music to accompany Until the Wyvern Spoke, which was a fun change of pace.I also share some storytelling lessons from Dungeon Crawler Carl—what’s working, what keeps readers hooked, and what I’m taking into my own writing.Grab yourself a cuppa—this one’s a bit longer than usual.

I’m still feeling under the weather this week, so instead of drafting I’ve been focusing on editing. I’ve been working through ** The Prince and the Fool (Ravenglass Legends, Book 4)** to prepare the manuscript for a professional edit next month.

I’m now around 70,000 words into the edit, so if all goes well I should have the manuscript finished early next week.

On the reading front, I’ve moved onto the sixth Dungeon Crawler Carl book. I absolutely loved book five, but so far this one isn’t quite grabbing me in the same way.

This week’s been a quieter one as I’ve been under the weather with a spring virus.

Even so, I’ve been working through the edits for The Silent Watcher, making progress on polishing the manuscript.

I’ve also been doing some reading and picked up Don’t Let Him In by Lisa Jewell, which was a gripping psychological thriller.

Not the most energetic week, but still moving things forward behind the scenes.
