I'm excited to announce my latest project, one that I've been working on for the past few months. "Recollect" was an unexpected and unplanned idea that came to fruition in September.
Back in 2021, I wrote a short story about Leif Villers that takes place several years after the events of the "Reclaim Trilogy." It was intended to be a supplemental story for a boxed set release of that same trilogy. That project never happened.
After writing Leif's novel "Only Human" in 2024, I returned to that short story to update it and fix some continuity to make it better tie into the published canon of the Shifter Academy universe. It was then that I realized that there were many more stories to tell about Leif Villers.
While writing "High Winds," I documented various short story ideas for Leif. It wasn't until after completing Oberon Rex's novel that I realized there weren't just a bunch of "what happened next" stories that needed to be written for Leif, but many of his past experiences that never received the detail they deserved.
As of this post, I'm sitting at 80% completion of the collection. The idea is 7 short stories, as well as a crowning novella. I'm currently in the process of writing the final chapter of the novella, named "Rebuild."
If there's something the world needs more of right now, it's more inspiration from Leif Villers. Stay tuned for more info! I can't wait to share this one! I expect this collection to release sometime this Spring!
