What's happening at Ian Wood's Novels? The usual - write Write! WRITE!

Writing the good fight and hopefully not writing wrongs!

This is the sister website to Ian Wood's Novellum where I used to blog book reviews, but since I reached 5,000 reviews (give or take), I decided to retire from reviewing. I'm still reading; I'm just not gabbing about what I read anymore. The time I save on not reviewing any more books, I'll expend on more creative pursuits. I'm thinking-up ideas for stories far faster than ever I can write them so I really need the extra time. Either that or another six hands, three more brains, and three more computers.

Anyway: this is the place to come for updates on my novels, for rambling about writing them, for sneak peaks and sample chapters, and that's been taking shape. All of the children's, middle-grade, young adult, and adult-oriented novels I've written are available on Barnes and Noble, and Google books (hereinafter referred to as the Dynamic Duo). I refuse to do business with Amazon or with Kobo Books, so you will never find my novels there. As far as Apple is concerned, older work is available there but I've decided not to publish anything new on Apple because they seem to delight in placing obstacles in the way of publishing. And they used to be leaders in the creative world. How far have they fallen huh?

An updated version of Marvel's Collapsing Universe, my only non-fiction work, is now available. It has been updated for Wonder Man and the X-Men movies.

My attention is now focused on three new projects! Like two wasn't enough. One is a fantasy story, which has 116,000 words in the compelted first draft. More work to be done here, but happy to have it in the can so to speak. I'm not relaly in the can. I'm at my desk. The second is a parody, which has just shy of 46,000 words. The third is a serial killer detective novel which currently has 67,000 words. I've been writing these three in tandem, and they're all going well.
