New series!
Jul. 17th, 2025 05:11 pm(Whoops, forgot to cross-post this! Seems a good time to remind y'all that you can subscribe to my Wordpress site to always get notified when there's a new post -- including all the weekly Patreon announcements that I keep not cross-posting ever since my plugin broke.
(Now, the actual post:)
There will be a more formal, industry-oriented announcement of this later, but since I announced this at BayCon the other day, I am delighted to say: I have sold a new series to Angry Robot!
Part of the reason the formal announcement will come later is that we need to figure out what the actual title of the series and/or first book will be. Right now my working title is something in the vein of The Worst Monk in the World Goes on Pilgrimage -- and if that sounds semi-cozy to you, you're not wrong. The elevator pitch is that a Buddhist-style monk with incredibly bad karma embarks on a famous pilgrimage in an attempt to make things better, and (of course) runs into complications along the way.
I'm currently over halfway through the draft of the first book, but due to Angry Robot's promotional plans for this series, it's likely that it won't launch until 2027. Don't worry, though; you'll have The Sea Beyond to entertain you until then!
