Ok, chapter 9 of Planet Zmaj is now done. I only have one more chapter to go and the editing can begin. Chapter nine is just short of 5,000 words. I had originally thought it was going to be a couple thousand words. So now I have no clue how the final chapter will be. I do know that it will feel great to call this part of the adventure finished.

We are almost done with chapter 7. If things go as planned, there should be one more chapter after this. So Planet Zmaj is getting very close to being finished with the actual writing phase. The closer it gets to the end, the slower things seem to be going. It will be done though and I thank everyone for their patience. Good art takes time. ~Mark

Just a quick update: Yes the book Planet Zmaj is still moving forward. However, the closer we get to the end, the slower things seem to be going. So please be patient. The next 'teaser' chapter should be posted soon. The book is still scheduled to be finished in time for a winter release.
