Boyce Nation – March Update
Happy March!
My goodness, so much has been going on…
- I cancelled the Wraith of Kings preorder… but here’s why.
- I took down Wraithblade… but it’s a good thing & here’s what’s next.
Updates from my writing desk
The Wraithblade Book 2 outline continues…
Dude, I know.
Still. Not. Done.
It’s taking a while, but it is going to kick so much ass.
I’m thrilled with the direction its taking. I know you’ve been hearing that from me since January, and you’re probably sick of hearing it at this point. With the way this is evolving, I truly think it’ll be worth the wait.
That said, I’ve given us the firm deadline of March to finish the damn thing so that I can get writing.
I’m tweakin’ for a fix of that sweet, sweet word count.
This outline is taking longer than I expected, but I’m happy with it! I think you’re going to love the twists.
That said, I’m jonesing to get writing. I haven’t written in months and I’m starting to go a little crazy.
Anyone else addicted to that sweet, sweet word count?

Updated schedule:
The plan is to take this book at a more relaxed pace. In the past, I’ve had trouble with writing in unsustainable sprints that burn me out, and I’m going to shoot for a more sustainable “1 chapter per day” goal, 5 days per week.
- March – finish the outline & start writing Wraithblade #2.
- April – write up to Ch. 30
- May – write up to Ch. 55
- June – finish the rough drafts & begin the final polish
- July – finish the book & hand it over to my publisher
I’ll be posting my progress each day and week on Twitter, so come join me if you haven’t already.
