- The Genesis Protocol - Book is out! I've actually seen it. Bigfoot was reading it while standing on the deck of the Flying Dutchman while waiting for a white elk to stroll by. I tried to get a picture of that, but the shadow of the UFO was screwing up my camera.
- Summon the Thunder - Kevin and I received galley pages for this today. Reviewing those with a deadline for returning corrections of March 8th.
- Untitled project - Turned first draft of manuscript in to the editor on January 9th. Awaiting editor feedback; will offer more details when the editor gives the go-ahead.
- S.C.E. #64: Distant Early Warning - Editor Keith DeCandido sent this to the licensor for approval on January 31st. Awaiting approval/feedback from them.
- Mere Anarchy: Book 1 - Currently writing this with Kevin. Manuscript due April 1st.
- Corps of Engineers #1: Turn the Page - Proposal accepted by the editor November 20th (or so). Kevin and I are awaiting licensor approval. Not sure what the manuscript due date will be, but I'm guessing some time around the 1st week of June or so.
- Enterprise: Mirror Universe project - a novel of approximately 50,000 words or so, with Kevin and I assisting former Enterprise staff writer/producer Mike Sussman with the writing. Had a fun conversation with him just this evening to talk about the story, and I gotta say...this is going to be a kick-ass ride. Not sure what our due date for a manuscript is going to be, but the editor is giving us a break thanks to our other commitments and such. More on this as details firm up and it's appropriate to share info.
- Original nonSF short story - Sent to market editor on September 17th. Waiting to see if it's accepted or rejected.
- Original SF short story - For an open-call anthology. Story sent to editor January 23rd. Waiting to see if it's accepted or rejected.
- Original short story - Outlined and a partial draft is complete. I've found a market for it, so I've got reason to get it done and out the door. Yee-haw! Other stuff with deadlines still take priority, though :)
- Original SF short story - I've outlined the first short story based in the "universe" of The Last World War. This one's on the back burner as I take care of projects with deadlines, but I'm thinking I'd like to write this in the next month or so. More info to come as I move forward on it.
- Counterstrike: The Last World War, Book II - Proposal is still in limbo. Some encouraging conversations, but nothing definitive, and certainly not anything I can share at this time.
- Trek novel solo project - Awaiting editor feedback on proposal.
- Trek novel project with Kevin - Awaiting editor feedback on proposal.
- Tie-in project with Kevin - Kevin has created a third version of this proposal, and is now waiting on me to get off my ass and work on it myself.
- Trek tie-in project - Nothing much more than a hare-brained idea at this point, I've nevertheless written a five-page proposal for it. Not sure if it ever will see the light of day, but I figure it's good for giving the editor a laugh.
- Two articles for Star Trek Communicator magazine with Kevin - These are still on hold pending word on direction of the magazine.
- Non-fiction/non-genre article (or series of articles) for local/regional magazine or newspaper - Got some research done on it, but I still need a market. Might have found one...still need to write that query letter....
