It’s time for another addition of WIP (work in progress) Wednesday. I’m currently working on self-edits for Sanctified, book three in the Matawapit Family Series. I plan on submitting the manuscript to my publisher at the end of July. Update: I’ve since submitted Sanctified to my publisher. I’m now currently working on self-edits for Renewed, …
By the time this post is live, I’ll either be knee-deep in edits with Sanctified and readying the third book in the Matawapit Family Series for submission to my publisher, or I might be continuing to fast-draft Renewed, the fourth and final book in the series. As of May 31st, I’ve written 65K for this …
My inspiration for writing the Matawapit Family Series came from the many talks I had with my Dad, who attended two. The purpose of these schools was to assimilate Canada’s First People into Western society. The schools had a devastating impact on the aboriginal population. The Matawapit Family Series touches on the intergenerational trauma the …
With Sanctified fully drafted and now needing edits, and Redeemed this-close to being sent out into the world of book retailers, I thought I’d post an excerpt from Sanctified, book three in the Matawapit Family Series. The Matawapit Family Series: In the wilds of Northwestern Ontario, the adult children of a domineering Ojibway church deacon …
I’m writing this blog on February 9th. I’m in edits with eXasty Books as we work on the release for Redeemed. So I thought I’d do a post of Sanctified, the third book in the Matawapit Family Series. I’m 72,705 words into my first draft. The joys of writing. Wait on edits from editor, and …
Now that Redeemed has been submitted, my goal is to finalize the first draft of Sanctified, book three in the Matawapit Family Series, starring eldest child Jude and family enemy Raven Kabatay. Sanctified was my project for NaNoWriMo (where writers writer 50k+ words in one month during November). So far, I have 60K done. I’ll …
It’s time for another excerpt from Redeemed, book two in the Matawapit Family Series. Since I schedule posts a good week ahead of time, my fingers are crossed that when this goes live, the manuscript will be in the hands of eXasty Books. Woot! The Matawapit Family Series: In the wilds of Northwestern Ontario, the …
Well, well, well…I’m this-close to subbing Redeemed, book two in the Matawapit Family Series. I’m on round number six of edits. Then I’ll polish. I’m anticipating subbing to the publisher mid-January. The Matawapit Family Series: In the wilds of Northwestern Ontario, the adult children of a domineering Ojibway church deacon find their faiths crumbling and …
I won. Yes, as of November 25th, I completed a total of 50,851 words. In my previous NaNo update, I mentioned I was shooting for 60k by the end of the month. If I write 2k a day, which I have been since November 15th, I’ll meet this goal. I’m on chapter eighteen for Sanctified, …
Yes, I’m participating. So I thought I’d give a quick update of my writing goals and progress until the end of the year. As you know, Blessed was released on July 06, 2018, the first book in the Matawapit Family Trilogy. At the end of October, I finished the fourth draft for Redeemed, Book Two, …
