G Younger: Blog

To slow down all the questions... It won't be ready this year.

After being sick for most of the year, I decided to write some stuff other than David. I just finished a story called The Outsider about a Montana cowboy who moves to Texas. I am almost done with the second Conclave book and I am working on a prequel to Star Academy called Norse.

I will probably start writing the next Better Man book around the first of the year. That means it will be ready about this time next year.

Is finally out of the hands of the editors and starts posting today.

For those that want a sneak peek, you can find the book on Bookapy and click on the Read Sample. It will allow you to check out the Prologue, Chapter 1, and about half of Chapter 2.

On Amazon, Freshman Year Box Set: A Stupid Boy Story, which contains the first four books in the series, is FREE through October 25. This version is professionally edited, so most of my bonehead mistakes in my earlier version on SOL are fixed.

If you decide to download it, do me a favor and leave a review. This helps me with a lot of things on Amazon and I would appreciate it. You can also Follow the Author which will notify you when my books hit Amazon.

Thanks and enjoy.

... so I have gifts for you.

First is a new book called Sister Swap: Wrong Side of the Tracks. It is a short four-chapter story that has almost no redeeming quality but naughty fun that I just put in the cue to post the first chapter.

As I promised my Advanced Readers, I sent out an email this morning telling them that there are 13 more chapters of A Better Man Book III. I've posted those chapters on my website for a FREE download.

In addition, the Amazon version (professionally edited to include reader feedback and more) of A Better Man II is on my site. It is called Busted Plays.

Finally, my editor, Bud Ugly, came up with an idea. Why not create a box set of books that are tied into the Stupid Boy and A Better Man series? These are characters that cross over. In the box set, there is an introduction to each book that includes how they are related. You can find this box set you can go to Bookapy or my website.

Enjoy your presents.

Due to my health issues and some major changes from the Advanced Reader to the SOL version, I will not be able to meet the end of August launch date. It looks like it will be sometime in November.

We take reader feedback seriously and one of the major issues they had was they felt the story ended too soon. They voiced a desire that it should have ended at either the end of the semester or New Year's, not the last football game. To solve that, we've pulled the first nine chapters from Better Man 4 and will be adding three to five chapters beyond that.

The issue is that with my hospital stays and recovery, I haven't been writing. The good news is the worst is behind me... not wanting to jinx it... so I think I can get the remaining chapters to my editors.

We follow a rigorous process to fix my books. It takes time for everyone to get a chance to read the chapters and make their corrections. Then I become the bottle kneck as I read everything one last time. The good news is that I'm old, so when I get it back it's like reading it for the first time. With all that in mind, I asked my lead editor to find out when it was realistic to implement the changes so we could get the book ready for SOL. That's where the November date was proposed.

Before I get swamped with messages, we will do everything we can to get done sooner.

Thanks for your patients.

A reader found the little Easter Egg in the chapter:

Jonas Crumby- The Skipper

Willy (Gilligan?)- First Mate

Are they going on a 3-hour tour maybe later?

In a storm?

landing on an uncharted island?
