Work in Progress: Avarys

(This post will be updated weekly)

I know, I know. I post all this content about my journey as a self-published author, and what you really want to know is:

When is the next book coming out?

Sorry, I haven't set a release date yet. Sometime in early 2027 I'm 26,000 words (about 30%) into the draft for Avarys, the third and final planned book for the Lietvia Galaxy series. I say planned, because I don't have any current plans to write more books in the series, but I could see an extra novella pop up here or there. But I have an omegaverse series of interconnected standalones that I am planning to write first, and then we'll see where the writing whim takes me.

 Avarys will take place after the events of A.I. Human, but like the other books, it can be read as a standalone. This one will be a MMF alien romance. Honestly, it will mostly be MFM, meaning the focus of the two males is on the female main character, but there might be occasional sword crossing. Still figuring out how much MM will be in the book as I write.

While I anticipate the manuscript will be ready for beta readers (or perhaps even ARC readers) by early to mid- December, people will be preparing for the holiday season and their own year-end wrap-ups at work.

People’s kids will also be out of school until early January, so finding readers who have the time to ARC read and review a book will be a little more difficult than usual. If I can't start the ARC campaign until mid-January, the earliest I could release Avarys would be late February. When I get the cover art, I will likely set the release date for late February, but if I'm able to get enough ARC/beta readers in December and January, I might be able to release it earlier. Contact me if you're interested in serving as an ARC or Beta reader.
