OK everyone I'm out of town. Good thing I'm head of schedule on NaNoWriMo: 50,000 words people. Yep that's right I'm already at the NaNo limit. I'm working on the down hill slope to make it to 100,000.
The novel is working out quite well. Well enough that I am able to keep working on editing Forced War.
Thanks for all your guys' support. I'll be updating again soon, and expect an episode of IEC this week as well as an update to the Encyclopedia Imperia.
Thanks again,

Encyclopedia Imperia and IEC Updates
Well the Imonoran Empire Cast and the Encyclopedia Imperia have both been updated.
The new episode of the IEC Showcases not a new story or new part of the IHDA but a story that was written before the Imonoran Empire was the cohesive thing it is today. Saving Worlds is a very early piece that I wrote before the Empire was actually understood in my head. It has been edited and updated several times by me and this is the finished product.
I would like to give a huge shout out to a friend of mine: Amanda Moss! She is the Narrator for this story. Thank you so much Amanda!
The Encyclopedia Imperia has it's first official update, something other than the introduction. The first Article that was chosen to be put up was about the Emperor. This was chosen for the reason that the Empire wouldn't be an empire without the Emperor.
Thank you all for your suport and I hope to here feed back about these two new updates. You can send all e-mail about them to the imonoranempire[at]gmail[dot]com.

Google Calendar
OK so I made a Google Calendar. It basically shows all the events that will be happening with the Imonoran Empire Cast as well as the Encyclopedia Imperia. I'll put other stuff up when I start to get more information.
This is for y'all. So you can know what is happening and when things are going to be released. The second season of the IEC is getting ready to start.
The IHDA will be put on hold for a while I have a special story that has been read by someone else other than me. So I will have two more episodes this month before the Season Two comes out. The story will be broken into two episodes that gives you a good amount of story per episode. The first will be out on this Wednesday (11-05-08).
Then I'll release Forced War.
That is how the end of this month is going to shape up. All the episodes for this month will be prerecorded since NaNoWriMo is going on and I am trying to double my out put from last month.

New Encyclopedia Imperia Project
OK I've started a new projec that you can find here. This new project is part of the Imperial Writer's Guide and the Empire Project in general. I will be updating this blog with a new article from the Encyclopedia every two weeks. This will hopefully help those who want to write stories in the Imonoran Empire to do so.
These articles will be archived in the Encyclopedia Imperia Site (A.K.A. The Imonoran Empire Wiki) . This means a large expansion for the Imperial Writer's Guide and Encyclopedia Imperia. I hope that people will enjoy the easy format of the Encyclopedia.
No there is no order to how the articles will come out so you will just have to wait and see like everybody else. The first article as well as an Introduction to the whole project is up on the blog already. The first few articles will be ones that are already on the site. That way we can get infomation out to you in a quick manner.

Blinding Dig (Working Title)
NaNoWriMo '08 is almost upon us and I am going to work at it again this month. I plan to double the out put I had from last year. That's right 100k words this next month instead of 50k. The next novel in the Imonoran Empire will be written during this month giving me more time to work on Ynel and do it right.
To get a synopsis of the novel go to my NaNoWriMo page (by clicking on the banner above). You can also follow my progress this year as I write the novel by clicking the banner.
So watch and wait and you may get a sneak peek at the novel as well.

Lost Falchion Update
OK I'm sure everyone who is still following this is wondering about a release date for Lost Falchion n print.
Well there currently is no release date. It will probably fall long the lines of late (very late) '09. This will put it along the same lines as Forced War's release date giving you too books from the Imonoran Empire line to buy. I've started work on a short story based In Ilahin Imperial Republic as well. It is going to be quite long and won't come out over the feed until after it is complete (which because of other projects probably won't be until after Forced War is finished podcasting).
I'm still working on other stories for the Empire and have started a new series of short stories (outside of what is already being released, so no this isn't the IHDA). This means more content will be coming across the IEC feed for you in the years (yes that is years) to come.
I have started some prelim work on the Next Imonoran Empire Novel/Novella including the time frame characters n general plot line of the story. I will be hiding a release of the Prologue to this latest story somewhere across the RB's Universe with in the next 6-8 months. I will drop hints to it here and everywhere.
I've also started working on some prelim work for the Ynel novel. I don't know if I'm going to work on Short Stories for Ynel I have a few in mind but again not sure. I know I won't be continuing the Ynel stories beyond what I write in the start: meaning after I podcast the Ynel novel I won't be continuing to write stories for it like the Imonoran Empire.
Also I'm done with prelim work for the first novel in Urkia Quadrilogy. At the moment though I don't know if I am going to work on the Urkia Quadrilogy or Ynel novel first.
So there is lot of Updates for you, more than just Lost Falchion.

Updates for Everyone
So I haven't been writing anything here on my blog or anywhere else. But I have been busy. I've been battling a small bout of depression and writers' block. Thank you all for sticking with me and staying through until the end of the little problem.
Well now the train is back on its tracks and moving ahead full speed. We are going to see a lot coming out of me these next few months before Forced War debuts in December, which I hope everyone is looking forward too. Since the Prologue has already been released that one is going to be released in a special episode at 12:00 am PST on November 30th. And then the very, next day, that's right folks two episodes in a row, at 12:00 am PST December 1st Forced War Chapter 1 will be going out over the feed.
So everyone will have their fill of Imonoran Empiry goodness. You guys have only yourselves to thank for this for keeping me going and supporting me through this little bout of depression and writers' block.
For now all you need to get crackin' on your own Imonoran Empire Stories. There are a lot of rescourses so far that you can use. Two of the largest projects that I'm working on is the Encyclopedia Imperia (A.K.A. the Imonoran Empire Wiki) and Imperial Writers' Guide. These are hopefully going to be two very well defined pieces of work to help you on your journey in writing for the Imonoran Empire. Remeber we are even running a contest to have your stories put in Empire Vols. 3 and 4.
To enter this simply send your story (as a ".doc") in an e-mail to either rbsuniverse@gmail.com or imonoranempire@gmail.com. We are hoping for 20 stories in each Volume so get cracking and if you need help you can always send e-mails to either one of those two above or comment here on the blog.
Thanks again for all the support and please go for the gold in this contest.

Not Dead!
OK people I need to clarify somethings: I am NOT Dead! I was gone for a week and then I was on a writing crunch for the last three. I think everyone who reads this will be happy to know that I am now getting very close to being finished with Forced War.
But another thing that I was working on was a story for the IHDA that I mentioned in the last interview with Unexpected Ramifications. Because I know that just reading out facts of Imperial History would bore the heck out of me, so I assume it would bore the heck out of all of you too. So I have written a short story to go along with it and the first will be coming out soon.
So I've been writing a lot. Chapter 14 and the Epilogue of Lost Falchion have already been put out and you will be looking for that Novella on Podiobooks soon.
Write now I'm working on Forced War so you will all enjoy that when it comes out.

Universe Ownership and other stuff
Well I was just alerted to an awesome site by J.C. Hutchins' MINE the site is The Authority for Universe Ownership. It is a hilarious website that is completely worth a visit. You can get a free deed to a universe.
Poke around the site more than just getting that and see the $10,000 "low cost" Membership fee and the science behind the whole site. It is really great.
Forced War is getting close to being finished then I will start recording that so it is all ready to go! It is really nice to have things going so well.
So go check out that site and J.C. Hutchins' MINE.
