Commerce Emperor News (series plans, Book 2 Stub notice and Book 3 returning in June)
Hello everyone,
It's been some time! I'm dropping this notice to make a few announcements relative to Commerce Emperor (I wished to do so a few days earlier, but I've been swamped with the end of my break, work on other project and a long plane trip). The break has been a good occasion to ponder my new outline for volume 3 and the future of the series, and I would like to share those news with you.
- Current plans for the series: concluding the trilogy and making the setting an anthology
Commerce Emperor has been on my mind a lot these past few days, especially on how to properly advance with volume 3 after the lackluster reception of its predecessors. The break was partly meant to help me stave off my burn out on it and taking some distance let me better figure out where I want to go with it, and I feel taking some distance helped with it.
My publisher has set a date for June 13th for the second volume's publication on Amazon and Audible, which means I'll have to take down the second volume's chapters by the end of May. As such, if you want to reread the volume or didn't have time to do beforehand, now is the time. This is an unfortunate calendar issue caused by my break, but I'll publish a summary of the series' first two volumes when I start updating book 3 again in June as a reminder.
- Volume 3 resuming in June, though with slower updates
I plan to resume Commerce Emperor in June to conclude the third book, though releases will be more irregular than before since I'm also working on other series on Patreon and focusing on Blood & Fur for now; expect something like an update every two weeks or something similar, with the first chapter of volume 3 being likely to drop close to volume 2's amazon launch. My new commerce-focused outline indicates that this book should be around the same length as the first (20 or so chapters) so I hope to conclude the trilogy by the year's end.
And that's all for now. Thank you all for your patience during the break, and I hope you'll be happy to see this story resume in June.
Best regards,
Voidy.
