Yup, that’s right, the beta version of Blood in the Machine – formerly (R)Evolution / Building a Better You – is live. I’ve got two beta readers going over the story, hopefully giving up some proper feedback that I can try and design the story and any revision around.

So, how long will it be before you can get your mittens on it? It’ll actually be awhile, since it’ll be sent out for editing once the beta read is over. The beta, as well, will last awhile so the readers will have some time to read, process, and give their thoughts on it.

So what will I do in the meantime?

Well, I had this little thought sneak up on me a couple nights ago regarding Under a Falling Sky. It was about Ashayl, one of my two protagonists, and a single tweak I could make. This single tweak, however, would completely rip up and rework how the entire world of that story functions.

I’m liking the changes I see as well, it’s just that I need to sit down and realize the scope of such a change. It’d also demand a rewrite of the story, something I knew I’d need to do anyway. Before I do anything rash, however, I’ll be brainstorming and outlining how this could all work out.

This is one of those points where having Mind Mapping software turns out to be very helpful. Oh well, I’ll tend to this all later on tonight and so forth. Until then, peace out.
