monthly mcgruder updates via wit and travesty

Yes, it’s time for updates. Thanks for sticking around and checking in on us. Do give us an update on your writing life in the comments or on social media!

Writing Updates & Goals

I got the proof in! Two of them, actually! I got a proof with half the story and another that was totally ready for publication. Yay! Ugh, it’s so exciting. Thank you so much if you’ve expressed your joy and excitement with me. This really means a lot. I really truly FINALLY feel like an indie author! Ahhhhhhh! Now, I’m working on setting up pre-order options, marketing materials, and otherwise spreading the word!

In regards to my Goodreads book challenge, I’ve read 20/50 books so far. Woohoo! I keep buying books and reading them, but who cares—they were delightful! I read The Tea Dragon Society which definitely stole my heart it was so precious. I also read Princess of Ceshela, Be Careful What You Joust For, and a bunch of comics. Right now I’m reading Scarlet by Marissa Meyer and Blood of the Empire by Christina Ochs.

What’s Coming in June?

To give you a sneak peak of what’s to come in June, here’s a quick list:

More Destiny Seeker Updates: Thanks to some outside help, I was able to tackle the book proof part of the process! Soon, I will share more information on publishing and how you can get your copy.

Blog posts: I’d like to share more book reviews and some other writing thoughts, but I’m not sure how June will go. I also sometimes make promises in these update posts that I don’t regularly keep. So for this month, it’ll probably be up in the air. I’ll be focusing on getting y’all excited for Destiny Seeker all June and July. Also! It’s my birthday this month, which means, I should really be slowing down and celebrating me all month. Tune in to find out what happens.
