Writing Update—Sep 5, 2023

The–almost–weekly writing update.

The almost weekly writing update.

Week 35, 2023

The last week has been challenging—revisions are still slow and, due to some issues at Amazon, I had to move the 2nd edition paperback release to September 12th which, after all the hard work, was disheartening :(.

The House, The Spheres Book Two

The revisions remain painfully slow.

Progress in numbers

Word count total— 110,000
Words revised total— 55,000
Words revised last week 6,000
(… somewhat better … )
Planned Release December 2023
(… maybe? potentially? possibly? … )

The Fragments, The Spheres Book One – 2nd edition

The Fragments first KDP proof (2nd edition)

Due to some, as of today, unexplained issues at Amazon, the new The Fragments Paperback edition went live on all but the US market as planned 🙁 … the issue has not been resolved in days so I decided to move the official release date to September 12th … ARGH!

We wouldn’t do this if it would be easy, right?


New here? I am New Zealand-based writer, artist and maker Minu Freitag. I have published my first book—The Fragments, an inventive mix of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Dystopian fiction—in 2022 and am currently working on the second book in The Spheres Series—The House—due for release in the first half of 2024.
