With the crazy juggle that has been my life this semester, I've been thankful for every scrap of time I could use for writing. I have made some progress, but much of that was with getting feedback to improve what I've already written, as I said last time. Over the next month, the holidays pick up, and the obstacles between me and getting the time to write start fading again. I will be able to make much faster progress and actually use that feedback.
I'm hoping that I'll be done with books 3 and 4 by the end of the break, so I'll be able to explore the next steps of bringing you these books. If I can make connections and find a regular publisher, I'd love that because it's likely to get more widespread readership.
However, I know chapter books and middle-grade fiction are hard to place with agents and publishers because they're considered not very profitable. Add the variety within the lore and series and the essential aspect of talking animals, and my optimism is not high. However, I still have the plan of a hybrid publisher who can spread word of these fun series far and wide. One way or another, I will keep working to bring these books to you..
