Hello readers,
I have completed writing the first draft of book one of my epic high fantasy series and am currently editing it. It's 95,000 words but the editing process may take it to 100,000 words. It's an epic high fantasy with flares of thriller, horror, and YA, and it is a series starter, not a standalone, with two main characters, both of whom are cishet young men in their late teens/early twenties. When I finish editing, I will post another update.
I've grown a beard, so my author profile picture is no longer up to date. I expect to post a new photo soon.
In food blog news, I recently tried a Nutella-filled Italian donut called a bomba. It was delicious! I also tried a cannoli-filling-filled bomba, which was also good, but the Nutella-filled bomba was slightly better. It's like a giant fried donut stuffed with Nutella.
I've also had an idea for a pizza: salmon as a pizza topping. I haven't tried this yet and I haven't seen any local pizza places offering it, so I might just buy a can of salmon and get some pizza slices and make it myself.
Happy Reading! And Happy Thanksgiving!
