Welcome to this week’s Author Diary where I share the progress on redrafting “The Wolf and the Wyvern” and my recent reading adventures.

🖋️ Progress on “The Wolf and the Wyvern”:

It’s been an exceptionally productive week. I’ve made significant headway in redrafting several chapters of “The Wolf and the Wyvern” (Ravenglass Legends, Book 2). At this pace, I’m optimistic about completing the second draft by the end of next week. It’s exciting to see the narrative take shape and evolve through this intensive redrafting process.

📚 Completed Reads:

“Last Night a DJ Saved My Life”: I’ve finished this enlightening book about the history of the disc jockey. It’s been a fascinating journey through the evolution of DJing and its cultural impact.

“The Book of Yokai”: Delving into Japanese mythology, monsters, and folklore, this book provided a captivating exploration of a rich and mystical aspect of Japanese culture.

🔜 Plans for Next Week:

My primary focus remains on “The Wolf and the Wyvern.” With Easter weekend approaching, I’m aiming to complete the second draft, which is an exciting milestone in the development of the book.
