Okay, where to start...Looks like I have bitterwseet news. Now the age old question, bitter first or sweet? Screw it, let's just talk about what's going on right now...
So I'm well on my way into the fourth draft, cleaning up the story, dotting lower case j's and crossing upper case H's, ya know, standard stuff. Shouldn't be long (end of the month maybe?) until I'm through with it and The Other Side is off to editing, then in your hands.
"Yes! Finally, Thompson!" you might shout at your computer screen, smart phone or tablet...well, unfortunately it's not that simple. See I have some news that will put a slight delay in publishing. BUT it's AWESOME news!! Like SUPER AWESOME!
drum roll, now pause for dramatic timing....aaaaaaaaaand here it is
Many of you know him, so this news won't come as a complete surprise, but artist +Michael Boyajian and his wife are expecting a wonderful new addition to their family. That's right, we wait in anticipation for a healthy, beautiful baby to come into this world any week now!
I know that they are beyond thrilled, and I can't be more happy for him and his family!
That being said, The Other Side will be released a little later than expected- my sincere apologies to all who have banked on my previously desired timeline. I know Michael is equally as excited as I am to finish up the artwork, but like Steve, Collin, Alex, Billy and Mike, family first- and when it comes to the real world and not some zombie fiction, I wouldn't have it any other way.
Rest assured, we both plan on working as hard as practical in getting you the story you've been waiting for, so please bear with us a little longer. When the timing gets closer I'll see about getting those interested the first chapter or so- a lil somethin' somethin' to wet the palate if you will.
Thank you very much for your patience, and as always, any questions, comments, concerns, criticisms let me hear em. Oh and feel free to send Michael some love :)
Thanks people of the world,
- me
