In terms of writing August was a good month. I wrote 70297 words and mostly were for book 3, which is not complete and would be off to editor in a few days. The total of the year to month tally comes to 389076 words, just shy of 400k.
Good news, the third book is the largest one I've ever written, and it will only grow through the editing process.
Now I'm writing the fourth book, and haven't decided on the name yet. I'll find it once I reach the end of it.
In the backend, I'm mulling over book 5 in the Glory of Formation Emperor series, but I also want to wait until I finish book 5 of the Lazy Immortal series. So, at least this year I won't be writing the next book in the Glory of Formation Emperor, and it also ties with Path of Crafting series, so the third book in Path of Crafting series might come earlier than the fourth book in Glory of Formation Emperor series.
