Jon’s Author Diary – July 7, 2023

This week, Jon balanced writing, web migration, and tax work. A new chapter of “Guild of Assassins” is ready for Substack. His website shifted back to WordPress. Amid tasks, he read “The Outcast Dead” and began “Deliverance Lost.” He plans to return to “Ravenglass Legends” next week.

Welcome back to Jon’s Author Diary for the week ending July 9, 2023.

This week has been filled with a fair mix of creation, organization, and some obligatory tax paperwork.

I’m delighted to announce the completion of another riveting chapter from my ongoing project, Guild of Assassins, which is scheduled to go live on Substack this coming Saturday. You won’t want to miss it!

Much of my time this week was consumed with a digital migration of sorts, moving my website back to WordPress – a task that required plenty of patience and attention to detail. In between the lines of coding and content organization, I tackled my taxes, something I’m sure we can all agree is a thrilling way to spend a week.

Amid all the work, I managed to find some treasured reading time, completing ‘The Outcast Dead’ in the epic Horus Heresy series. With no pause, I’ve already dived into the next book, ‘Deliverance Lost.’ I can’t wait to share my thoughts on these in an upcoming review.

Looking ahead, I’m eager to return to the heart of my craft – writing. Next week, I will be immersing myself back into the world of Ravenglass Legends with the second book, along with the continued work on Guild of Assassins.

Make sure to tune in next week to follow along on my author journey. Like, share, and subscribe if you haven’t already, and let’s continue this writing adventure together.

So, until next time, cheerio.

Jon’s Author Diary – June 23, 2023

In his 300th diary episode, Jon explores progress on “Guild of Assassins” and “Ravenglass Legends”. He also shares his thoughts on the Horus Heresy books and recent Netflix indulgences, offering a balance of creativity and leisure.

Welcome to the 300th episode of Jon’s Author Diary.

This week has been a tremendous journey, with progress on my books, indulgence in some fantastic reads, and a few hours well-spent on Netflix.


This week, I’ve been channeling my inner rogue while working on my book, Guild of Assassins, an exclusive Substack novel. It’s an intense exploration of the shadows where the silent killers dwell. Stay tuned on Substack for thrilling chapter updates and some behind-the-scenes revelations about this unique guild.

Book 2 of the Ravenglass Legends is underway. This week, I have made significant strides in developing the narrative arc and the characters. There’s plenty of surprises, mystery, and adventure to come.


In the midst of writing, I’ve also been indulging in some quality reads. This week, I’ve delved into the Horus Heresy books – “The First Heretic” and “Prospero Burns”.


Besides writing and reading, I’ve found some time to unwind with Netflix. I watched the Arnold Schwarzenegger documentary – an insightful, inspiring dive into the life of one of the most iconic figures in the fitness and entertainment world. “Killing Eve” also kept me hooked with its intense narrative and outstanding performances.


It’s been an exciting week of writing, reading, and relaxing with some fantastic TV. If you want to join me on this journey and never miss an update on the “Guild of Assassins”, follow me on Substack at joncronshawauthor.substack.com.
