Went over 20k words in Extinction Event yesterday, and Shit Just Got Real. The war for the world has begun in earnest.

I'm nearly up to 10k words on my Extinction Event. Satisfied with progress so far.

Although I have since changed the cover, this is still a fun one and a different direction from typical Ian Thomas Healy superhero fare. youtu.be/M3YGrQ3nqPY

Some characters are just easier to write than others. Anytime I'm writing Mustang Sally or La Capitana or even Sentinel, the words just flow. Battle Cry (a new character for this book) is challenging because I haven't quite found his voice yet (he's deaf, so I'm really challenging myself). It Girl is another new character that hasn't yet solidified in my mind.

Finished plotting the next book today. I left the epilogue undefined, as it will almost certainly develop organically out of the four different character arcs in this one. I'll start actual writing probably tomorrow.
