Join me in this week's Author Diary as I celebrate the completion of "Punks Versus Zombies," launch new reading opportunities, and dive into fresh storytelling perspectives.

🧟‍♂️ Finishing "Punks Versus Zombies":

This week marks a significant milestone—I've completed writing "Punks Versus Zombies." After crafting 52 episodes and a whopping 180,000 words, this series is ready to be repackaged into a trilogy and sent off for editing. It's been a rewarding journey, and I'm thrilled to prepare these stories for a new format.

📖 New Side Story Development:

In addition to concluding the main series, I've started work on a side story featuring Tommy's girlfriend, Niamh, and their son, Sean. This narrative explores a different point of view within the same universe, adding depth and new angles to the overarching story.

📚 "The Wolf and the Wyvern" Paperback Release:

I'm excited to announce that the paperback version of "The Wolf and the Wyvern" is now available on Amazon. As we gear up for the eBook release on August 29, I've also made the book available for early access to paid members on my Patreon. This approach ensures my most dedicated readers get first dibs on the new adventures awaiting in the Ravenglass Legends.

📘 Early Access on Patreon:

For those interested, "The Knight and the Rebel" is also now being serialized on Patreon. I'm posting chapters every weekday, giving members an exclusive first look at this fresh installment in the series. Additionally, Book 1 is available for free for members to read, providing a perfect entry point for new fans and a refresher for those following the series.

As we transition from one major project to another, I'm energized by the ongoing support and engagement from my readers. Whether you're a long-time follower or new to my work, there's plenty to explore and enjoy.
