A lot’s been going on behind the scenes at 100 Words, more than can possibly fit in a 100 word story. I wanted to update my loyal readers as to why I’ve been MIA for the past couple months.<\/p>\n

First of all, I’m a few weeks away from finishing the final draft of my novel. That’s exciting. The next phase will begin soon, when I start actively looking for publishers. Or figure out the feasibility of publishing it myself. Stay tuned for updates.<\/p>\n

I’ve also been compiling stories for a 100 Word Story E-Book. It’s going to be at least 50% all new stories, and we’ll be selling it through iBooks and Amazon among other places. I’m hoping to have that ready to go by the end of June, but no guarantees at this point.<\/p>\n

I’m also working on two submissions for the Machine Of Death 2 project. If you don’t know about Machine Of Death, you can read about it here<\/a> or here<\/a>. Basically, it’s a series of stories based on the premise that someone has invented a machine to 100% accurately predict how a person dies.<\/p>\n

In the meantime, here’s a new 100 Word Story based on the Machine Of Death concept. And I’ll do my best to keep adding new stories on a semi-regular basis.<\/p>\n

Thanks,
