(I hate when things end, but I can&#8217;t have all my series be indefinite forever&#8230; As much as I&#8217;d like to, it&#8217;s also too much stress.)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Demon in My Dorm Room:<\/strong> There&#8217;s currently only one book out, BUT there will be more! Book 2 is finished and I&#8217;m about 3\/4 of the way through book 3. I&#8217;m planning on publishing them at the same time, so everybody can read them both at once and not be stuck waiting for years in between. Though I&#8217;m also planning on writing at least a fourth book, so there will probably still be a wait. But whatever! You didn&#8217;t see that part! You only saw the part about two books coming out &#8211; yay!<\/p>\n<p>I wish I could give more concrete info, and I hate having delays and not being sure about whether or not there&#8217;ll be more of any particular series, but I&#8217;ve been dealing with chronic pain for more than a decade now, which not only just sucks at a basic surface level, but also zaps my creativity and makes writing really difficult. I&#8217;ve recently discovered&#8211;after many years of seeing various types of doctors who basically just shrugged (except for my current doctor, who&#8217;s awesome) and spending countless hours researching on my own&#8211;that the source of this might be entrapped nerves in my abdomen (specifically ACNES, anterior cutaneous nerve entrapment syndrome), though I&#8217;m still in the process of jumping through all the hoops to get properly diagnosed. So we&#8217;ll see, but it&#8217;s seeming more and more likely.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, I&#8217;m doing better now than I was a few years ago, and I at least sometimes have pockets of creativity where I&#8217;ll be able to write consistently for a month or two before I have another flare up that completely derails everything again. Is this the best way to build a writing career, especially in self-publishing? Nope! But it&#8217;s what I&#8217;ve got.<\/p>\n<p>So THANK YOU to everyone who continues to read these books and ask for more &#8211; it means the world to me, even if I don&#8217;t always have a good answer.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve had a few people asking lately about the next book in my various series, so in case anyone else is wondering too, here&#8217;s where I&#8217;m at with these: Renegade X: There are currently 5 novels and 3 novellas out and I have an outline and a title for book 6, but I haven&#8217;t started [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[62,32,25,87,88],"class_list":["post-3532","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-publishing","tag-demon-in-my-dorm-room","tag-dragonbound","tag-renegade-x","tag-series-updates","tag-update"],"views":821,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3532","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3532"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3532\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3616,"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3532\/revisions\/3616"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3532"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3532"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chelseamcampbell.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3532"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
