Virus update. We’ve reached 67,223 known cases and 1,309 dead. This means since last week we’ve had 149 new cases and 3 deaths. This includes the totals from today.

Book news. I’m publishing Samantha’s 10k short story tonight.

I’ve reached 15,600 words of the 40k to 50k in the second book of the Acinonyx. All six of Gwen’s Vella episodes have been edited and published. Now I want to see what Amazon does with Vella. The cover designer is making the cover for Crimson Rose’s July release. I’ve edited it since it was returned earlier.

I’ve written 126,400ish words this year towards my 280,000ish goal.

Vella goal: 9,400ish words. I didn’t work on the seventh one, but I hope to this week.

The free short story where Felia meets Bastet is one I offer on my mailing list.

YouTube videos every Sunday, Wednesday, and Friday. TikTok will be posted daily or every other day because they’re not as time consuming.

Gaming news. Patched and been playing Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla. They added new things since the last time I played in December 2020.

Reading for the week. The cover images are posted on Pinterest.
