464 - August 16, 2026 - Six of Swords, Ravenglass Legends, Blind Gambit

This week I’ve been making good progress on Six of Swords. I’m 12 chapters into the draft, which probably puts me somewhere around the halfway point.I’ve also been going back over what I’ve written so far for The Hammer and the Crown, continuing work on the next Ravenglass Legends novel.One of the more satisfying things this week has been returning to older projects. I revisited Blind Sight, a prequel novella to Blind Gambit that I originally abandoned back in 2018. I’ve finally finished it and published it on Patreon. I’ve also been working through another story from my open projects folder, this time set in the Black Death world, which should hopefully be ready next week.On the reading front, I’m continuing with Will Wight’s Cradle series and have now reached Book Five, Ghostwater. I’m really enjoying the series, and I’ve also finally worked out why I struggled to follow parts of the second book, Soulsmith. It turned out to be a useful lesson in storytelling craft.
