I found this incredibly funny... I had absolutely no idea that the name I had cooked up for my long dead king was also the name of a top-selling detergent in in Australia and New Zealand until a fellow writer on Reddit pointed it out to me today! I know that I have at least... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, September 19th 2014: Revision, Revision
This update finds me in the depths of some heavy duty revision of The Lost Tomb of Omo. I finally got all the pages back from Jessica, and her input confirmed my fears that the story had lost its pace early in the 3rd chapter. I was able to regain it in the 4th chapter,... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, September 9th 2014: 26,284 Words and a Boatload of Refinement!
Hello Dear Readers! Last week, the combination of a working holiday weekend and a milestone birthday really impacted my available writing time. I ended up skipping the update to use that time to work on The Lost Tomb of Omo instead. I’m glad I did that, as it at least gave me a feeling of... Continue Reading →

Swords Against Genre! Engineer’s Log, August 19th 2014: 23,028 Words
I now officially have ten chapters written for The Lost Tomb of Omo! I printed the whole work in progress and it came to about forty double spaced and double sided pages, it was too thick to staple as one section! I always print hard-copies for review and revision. Call me old fashioned, but there... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, August 15th 2014: Turning a New Chapter
I’ve added about 400 words to The Lost Tomb of Omo since my last update. That isn’t too bad for three working days where the amount I time I can devote to writing is minimal… Plus an epic thunderstorm that disrupted one of those evenings. It also includes a fair amount of revision where I... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, August 12th 2014: 21,327 Words.
It is far past time for an update! I think that you will be able to forgive me however, as I have been using most of my spare time to work on The Lost Tomb of Omo rather than blogging. As of last night I have reached 21,327 words and I’m nearing completion of the... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, July 23 2014: 15,150 Words.
15,150 words. That is where I am at as I wrap-up my work on The Lost Tomb of Omo for tonight. That is forty nine double spaced pages and three and a quarter chapters for those of you who are interested. It is definitely some of my best work to date. The last week has... Continue Reading →
Engineer’s Log, July 14th 2014: No, I’m not Dead.
Hi Everyone. This is my first substantial update for the newly christened Aethereal Engineer, and a much needed update for Aethereal Engines, which hasn’t seen any new material added in about two and a half months at this point. So much for trying to post an update every 4-6 weeks! Sheesh! While that has been... Continue Reading →
