On Friday, September 29, I finished the last page of the last book of my new Savagespace series. After a lot of world-building, layout, plotting, and planning — the final book has been finished.

Originally, this was going to be a 6-book series. However, as I worked on it and completed books, it was increasingly clear that I have 1–3 novels and 1–3 novellas, depending on word counts. As I wait to hear back from the beta readers currently going over books 1 and 2 combined, I’m inclined to turn my 6-book series into 3 books instead.

Whatever the case might be, and however I decide to approach this — the writing of the Savagespace series is done. After not quite a year and a half, this work is complete.

No, I’m not done with Savagespace, per se. The first 2 books combined as one are with beta readers, and when they’re done, I’ll need to do editing and reworking. After that — or simultaneously — I’ll need to have the first books edited and get beta readers to look at the combined books 3 and 4. Plus cover art, plus having some other images made (because I have ideas for pre-promoting the series before I release it).

Editing, marketing, more editing, more marketing — and S avagespace will be out there.
