The Scoundrel Squad
Greetings and Happy Halloween! I’m celebrating the holiday by releasing my latest Write Wise entry, the Scoundrel Squad. It is my 22nd entry overall and is a horror themed story set during the Vietnam War. It has been a while since I had written a horror entry, the last being the Julian Crowe series from a few years ago, so I felt it was time to revisit the genre to celebrate Halloween. The Scoundrel Squad was going to be planned out as a trilogy at one point, with this story being divided into two but I decided that it flowed better as a continuous storyline. I have a rough idea in mind for how I would want to end this series but I won’t go into any further details at this time.
As for the Christmas Write Wise, I have toyed with the notion of writing a prequel to Cogworld based on the adventures of Peter, Winston and Cog’s father who was mostly absent during the original story. I already have a plot in mind for that entry but am not sure if I’ll get around to writing it for a while. I would have to read over the original story to remind myself of the lore, in order to keep a continuous world. If it were to go ahead then the main characters form the original book would be in it briefly or only mentioned in passing. I would also like to explore further into the Death and Life of Ellen Smith. I have a few ideas of what Ellen and Bart’s lives would be like after their original adventure but have no main storyline in mind for the time being. After all, it is difficult to raise the stakes after Mercer the Vile tried to destroy the entirety of existence and of course, an omnipotent God could always dispose of threats easily.
I do have a rough plan for a new Christmas entry that is unrelated to any previous instalments or series. I can say little on my project nor can I promise that it can be written in time for the deadline. I intend for it to be a light-hearted story full of quirky characters and inspired by Back to the Future. As for now, I hope you enjoy the Scoundrel Squad and have a happy Halloween!
