Author. I usually write adventure in Sci-fi or fantasy. I was a soldier for 15 years. I write heroes against long odds. I also like cats & coffee. Lots of java!

Hey there. I'm not "officially" back on X but was doing some market research involving social media. I might come back shortly. I miss my peeps here and engaging with the larger community.

Taking a break. See y’all in 5-6 years.

My computer had a catastrophic cascade failure a couple of months ago. I didn't lose any of my WIPs, but the auxiliary documents - timelines and character bios - might be gone forever. I haven't had the courage to look at my backup stick yet. It's only a setback.

I’m not taking a break from writing, while working on editing and side projects. I’m doing it all congruent, so everything takes three times longer to complete. 3 things get complete at the same time, however, so there is no boredom. I figure I’m a quarter through my WIP.

Blood Hunters is a thing. It’s book 20 in my catalog. Vampire urban fantasy. Lots of action, if you get my meaning.

Book 20 being released this coming week. KDP formatting done, so should be everywhere by end of next week. Got to do the epub formatting. “Blood Hunters” - vampire adventure with a twist.

Public Lending Rights are supposed to drop today! Let's hope the system works instead of being built by the lowest bidder.

I finished my 1st draft of my 20th novel yesterday. It now goes to the editing team, and I take a well deserved 12 hour break before resuming work on my 21st novel. Blood Hunters should be out in June 2024.

2024 marks the 20th anniversary of my writing as an author. 19 books in 20 years is pretty good, I think, considering it’s still only a hobby for another eight years. Suspend disbelief - have an adventure! HTTPS://johnwpartington.ca

The current WIP is 162 pages at trim size in play mode, so it's only going to get bigger.
