Writing journey and updates
Follow the creation of my debut sci-fi fantasy novel from Crediton to the stars. Here, I document every step of bringing the StarCryer universe to life, sharing draft progress, early universe lore, creative challenges, and the honest reality of writing my very first book.
Draft progress: halfway to the stars
The first manuscript is steadily advancing. I have currently completed 44,500 words, marking roughly the halfway point of the initial draft. My target is to reach approximately 100,000 words before undertaking the comprehensive editing stage. On this page, I regularly share updates on daily word counts, outline pivots, and the real-world creative hurdles faced while forging this ambitious epic.
Universe lore and early concept art
To whet your appetite for what is to come, I am sharing early artwork and foundational world-building previews. Discover early looks at the front cover concept for the StarCryer—subject to change as the story evolves—alongside fresh lore snippets introducing the diverse civilizations, uncharted sectors, and looming cosmic threats awaiting inside the pages.
