Seekrit Project: Announcement Coming Soon!

For those of you who haven't been beta-reading the Seekrit Project, good news!

I will be launching the project here, and in the Vögelein newsletter, on April 1st. Once you know the subject matter, that date will make perfect sense.

I have twelve finished inked pages so far, with a thirteenth fully pencilled and on my desk. I was hoping the new style would go faster than the old, but between the breaking-in period, getting accustomed to new tools, and the stupid-hard backgrounds I'm giving myself (my next book will be set in a blank room and populated by stick figures, I think) each page is taking nearly as long as those from the Vögelein books. Here's hoping for improvement.

The game plan is to have twenty pages done by the time I launch. You'll get the prologue, which is five pages, and the first page, to start. Then it'll run once-weekly. One-a-week is about all the page rate I can handle and work full-time and still have a life. The 15-week buffer will ensure that it runs on time for the immediate future. As much as I wish I could go twice-weekly, like all the cool kids... alas. I'd rather only promise what I know I can deliver.

And there will be extras. Oh.... just y'all wait.

Moohoohahaha. Stay tuned!
