Like many random-ass pages on this wiki, this is a place to put my personal thoughts. On the Internet. For anyone to read.

This page is a notepad for the process I am beginning of creating a "second edition" of the existing Course Books, making some changes, tweeking a few things, and generally fixing stories I haven't been happy with. This is accompanying a project to migrate to a new PoD distributor where I can fully control the layouts and interiors, as well as migrating to distributing my own e-books.

Another step in this process will be migrating away from AuthorHouse. Which will make me sad, but the time has come.

Books

The books, and what parts of them need to be fixed:

PTA

The Path to Ascension

Surprisingly not that bad.

  • The Dark Lord Nimi is getting a from-the-ground re-write.
  • Virus needs some re-writing. Its ok, but I think I want to fix the part with the plasma coolant and make it not about HIV
  • I'm not really happy with Wildfire Emerges, the Rian character never really "went" anywhere, so to speak...
  • Always been a touch iffy on The Truth Finally Revealed, maybe just need some feedback on it? is kiiiiiiind of important?

All tolled 3 stories that need some thought and 1 total re-write

RTW

The Road to War

I'm not gonna lie, I killed it with this book. Its worth running through for corrections, but there's nothing that really needs work.

One minor thought is to replace Dragoon Lancers: Wrath of the Lancer's Light with a different short story thats about the same characters. There's nothing wrong with that story per-se, but it is something of a nonsequiter. I will speak to the 3 people that actually read the book and find out.

CTV

The Concourse to Victory

If I'm being perfectly honest with myself, this is another one thats just good as-is.

Its worth taking another spin through Forbidden JUST because of how vital to the series it is.

ITD

The Inclination to Destiny
