My publisher told me the novel will be coming out in two to four weeks. That was a week ago. I've been checking my email religiously, hoping for a confirmation of Strike of Lightning being finished and ready to order.
This has made me wildly impatient.
I'd put the cover on here, but I'd rather it be a surprise. The only people who were supposed to know originally was just one friend of mine, but that eventually stretched to my mother, several of my friends, and my roommates; basically everyone. On multiple occasions, I posted on social media my plans of writing, but I know nobody really expected this to happen this soon, and that's great because this is a surprise I want to be perfect.
In other news, the second installment of Sound of Thunder has been started, and other works aside from Sound of Thunder have been under way. Sound of Thunder won't be alone in its progression forward, because from what I've learned, it's not good to stick with one story/storyline. When writing Strike of Lightning, I didn't write anything else, and that resulted in some days without anything at all to contribute to the story. I feel this would happen to my readers, too. If I got die hard fans/readers, (which would be rad), they'd probably get bored with Sound of Thunder and/or would simply want to read something else if I didn't put anything else out. Maybe. I don't know. Time will tell.
As said before, always hold courage and belief in what lies within.
Aaron.
