Long Term Works in Progress

A couple of years ago I blogged a list of long term projects in progress and, for my own edification or mental sorting of projects, I have revisited that list to evaluate where am and added a couple of possible projects. These are all collections of stories or novels which are in various stages of completeness or incompleteness, as it may be.

Officially, I've only committed to the publication of three more novels which are:

1) Weird Worlds of Joel Jenkins (Due some time soon)
2) Gantlet Brothers: Sold Out (final proofing stage)
3) The Coming of Crow (Dropping sometime in 2014)

After Coming of Crow (my 17th book) hits Amazon, I'm going to do some evaluation on my usage of time, and decide how best to approach the rest of my projects, if at all.

So here's my review of my last Long Term Projects List:


1)Immortals of the Dire Planet (First Chapter Written)
2)Abominations of the Dire Planet  (Nothing but ideas)
3)Strommand Greatrix novel (Outline finished)
4) One Foot in My Grave: the autobiography of risk-taker September Peterson and his battles with cystic fibrosis and life. (Now Published)
5) The Samuel T. Ogden Zombies and Skateboards collection  (43,500 words)
6) Midnight Avengers: The Eel and Adder collection  (56,000 words)
7) The Gantlet Brothers: Sold Out  (94,000 words. Complete. Final Proofing Stage)
8) Lone Crow: Gunmen of the Hollow Earth novel (17,873)
9) Lone Crow collection (Currently over 90,000 words. Finishing one nearly complete tale with Shotgun Ferguson and writing one more 10,000+ word story about Crow and Six-Gun Susannah Johnson disposing of an evil artifact off the stormy shores of Costa Rica)
10) Weird Worlds of Joel Jenkins: short story and novella collection (Finished at 112,000 words)
11) Barclay Salvage: the interplanetary adventures of Aaron Barclay and his intrepid crew of salvagers (79,246 words, but needs some more stories tying things together and giving some resolution)
12) Dogs and Sorcerers: Tales from the City of Bathos book 3 (Only one story written, but a host of ideas)
13) The Fiends of Necropolis: Damon St. Cloud (Nothing written)
14) Damage Inc. Collection (47,159 words)
15) Monica Killingsworth Collection (14,695)
