It’s spring. At least some plants thought it was a month ago. Early budding and then freezes. Last night was 14 degrees. Looks like no peaches, apricots, or plums this year since they budded out way too early. Still hoping for cherries and apples.
The rewrite of A Tangled Road to Justice and the first sequel have gone to my editor. Book 3 not ready yet. Getting anxious to get to book 9 of Destiny’s Crucible. Yozef’s life is about to get more complicated.

You are one of the best world builders I have read. I hope Jozef lives a long life in your stories.
Can't wait. I look forward to all your works!
I live in your area and am worried about the Berry crops! Lots of damage done by such a hard freeze at this time.
Can't wait for the next chapter, that AI is leading to many questions.
I hear you on the pace of spring. In my Mastodon account, I had written this haiku a few weeks ago here in New England: Small blades pierce white coats On a march to fell the cold. Soon the field bleeds green. only to have to follow recently with: Snow, snow, snow, snow, snow. Nature's signs were spelling "spring". That's now whited out.
Destiny’s Crucible is the only continuous story series that I’ve ever read/completed in my 69 years. It’s wonderful and my family looks forward to the next instalment. It would make a good miniseries, but, like the books, it would be for smart people …
Looking forward to book 9!
Why should I buy the rewrite of Tangled? I loved the original, and I thought the use of the first person was well done. I confess I read each of your books at least twice, but I wonder what you have improved to make me interested in reading the rewrite. Not criticizing, just asking.
Rereading a fearful symmetry for the third time. I share others concern that Olan might find himself boxed into a too difficult of a situation. However, the ‘educated‘ Narthani have excepted the truth of aliens and earth. I have thought of several waysJoseph could enlighten his immediate family, and I see as most promising a gathering of the flight 4382 people with their families on a Six day excursion. It is unknown, how the Narthani will make use of this information; sharing it with potential Cadellium allies is one possibility, but who would believe them? I see the better health of their families and Bronwyn‘s family as an issue for difficult opinions, especially by Heather. — — — Very glad to read that other couples are reading books together, my significant other, and I have read maybe a dozen series together so far, just completing the Iron Druid Chronicles, and I hope to move to this series with her next!  — — — Regarding ‘Harbinger’, like climate change, we Earthlings are too caught up in our interdependencies to make necessary changes.  A sad truth.
Why are you rewriting it?
Book 9 of Destinees crucibles .I’m sure will be interesting. I am a little bit worried though .Olan might paint himself in a corner. I don’t want to see this series ending. trying to think in Olen’s head.  Heather sidetracks the truth by painting, some murals of undersea cities. Instead of outer space, undersea space. The planet is 80% ocean, so just might work. This way, he’s not a outer space freak .
Fantastic news all around. For DC - I wish you would bring in a Medical Doctor (from Earth) and that person work with Mark and Yosef to continue to astonish Cadellium with advances just in time to fend-off the evil leadership of Narthani. The Doctor could introduce medical procedures that help the general population but also to help the battle-field injuries. It would be a evil dominant empire against a small force producing unbelievable resistance.
Ah...duh. He's lied to his two wives. He's lied to everyone in Cadellium. He's an outer space Alien. His friends, family, and country men have no way to grasp that statement. The people of Anyar are 2 centuries from space flight. Olan, I don't envy you. How will Yosef explain this revelation. Will he be trusted again. Will, after a pause, the people will come to a glimmer of understanding. It's Yosef. In their hearts his friends will come to realize that this story is not that hard to believe. Remember, it's Yosef. Carnigan will just slap him on the back and laugh and say, he knew it all along!
I was wondering if you were going to venture into writing more about Martha Whitworth’s adventure’s. I’d be very interested in that story Olan.
Faster, faster!

I’m listening to A Fearful Symmetry right now! Loving it!
Hopefully we see some action in the next book. I miss colsco directing battles.
Would you consider putting out a glossary of names? Firstly after such a long break from the previous audio, I have forgotten the positions of some of the individuals held. Secondly, the character names sound so foreign it's at times difficult to track who is who when speaking. Finally, we need a reminder of the different communities and towns/cities. Interested to know how others feel about this.
Ready up to chapter 6, loving it ❤️
Book signing!?!
I am so excited!!!!
