I hope everyone (if you celebrate) is having a nice Easter Sunday! I’ve been meaning to write an update, because the last two months have been full of changes in my personal life, and I won’t be settling into any “normal” routine until the Summer.
First of all, I’d like to thank everyone who’s read Celestial Heir. I really appreciate all the positive feedback I’ve received over the past 2 months! I do apologize for separating the main two POV’s like that. Eventually (likely once book 3 is finished) I’m planning on going back to books 1 and 2 and making some tiny adjustments. One of those adjustments will probably be reordering the chapters in book 2 back to my original layout. The book 1 changes are mainly for readability, and won’t affect the story at all.
I’ve been a little slower writing book 3 than I was with books 1 and 2, mostly because I’ve been super busy with personal things. It’s coming along steadily though, and my goal is still to release it by December. At the current rate, the length will likely be almost the same as Tail of Revenge. I’ll be taking nearly a 7-week break soon because of a new job, so my progress will be stunted until June. This shouldn’t impact my goal of December, though!
Lastly, I wanted to release two “excerpts” from a book that exists in the world of Celestial Heir: The Post-Sever History of Quassa, written by an unnamed Galontrian many centuries before the events of book 1. Both of these excerpts were originally intended to be prologues to books 1 and 2 that I chose not to include. Neither of these are “required reading” for the series, but they do add a bit more context regarding the archipelago’s history. If you’re interested, here’s the link: https://chester-young.com/post-sever-history-of-quassa/
Thanks again for the support!
