Currently, I am working on two books. I am aiming to make them both between 20k and 50k words. For right now though I am currently working the over all plot, the world, and character building out of the way. To be honest though, I feel I may be over thinking this bit, and I might change things hundreds of times before the final project is done.
So far I have been piecing it together bit by bit for the last year or so. Anyways, here is the blurb to my book The Black Rot. Its the first book in the series, with Under the Moon coming in shortly after.
In the shadowed heart of a crumbling Victorian world, necromancy is both a gift and a curse. For those who wield death’s power, an unseen plague lurks beneath the skin — a creeping affliction known as the Black Rot. It stains flesh in obsidian veins and devours its host from within, marking the damned for what they are. Avery, a young necromancer cursed by the disease, feels his life ebbing away as the rot spreads. When whispers speak of a cure hidden within the Book of Beasts, his fate becomes entwined with Lucian, a master necromancer whose talent is rivaled only by his thirst for vengeance. Lucian seeks to destroy Theron, the man who betrayed him — a former friend now consumed by madness, power, and forbidden lust. Bound by desire and desperation, Avery and Lucian descend into a world of decay, obsession, and dark magic. As the rot consumes Avery’s body and Lucian’s vengeance consumes his soul, both men must confront the monstrous nature of their power — and of their love. In this Gothic tale of passion and corruption, Black Rot explores what it means to crave life when death itself is your closest companion.
I haven't started on Under the Moon yet, but I plan on starting that sometime in November of 2026 if I can get this book done in the next few months.
