Hello Backers!
Very excited that I made the goal last night to send out the rough draft to editors. I'm looking for a couple more people who would like to read and send me corrections of the book.
I'll send you digital copies of books 1,2 and 3 and a mention in the final book. I do need all feedback prior to Sept 1st. If you are interested, please reach out to me!
Thank you all and I'm stoked!

Hello Backers!
Very excited about all the work done last week. I have a rough draft of the TPB (minus 3 pages that Jose still needs to send me) My plan is that this will be going out to my editors and volunteers (some of you even that have reached out to me) TOMORROW!
So while they are working on that, I will keep working on the backmatter, which is almost done. After the TPB is finalized, I continue with the HC and then finally the Omnibus.
Almost there!

Hello Backers!
I hope your summer is going great! This year I passed on SDCC in order to focus on finishing up Pariah Missouri and I'm glad I did. I have 2 black and white pages that I am working on right when I finish this update and I think I'm going to ask Jose to add a couple more pages 1-2, just to flesh out some of the scenes and THAT'S IT!
Yep. My goal is to get all the finished artwork in the Indesign file by the end of the week. then the following is the list of action items:
Make any edits to Tpb #3 by the end of the week.
Send out rough TPB to editors (some of your backers have offered to take a look)
While editors do their thing, I will put the Hardcover and Omnibus files together.
Obtain comments from editors and incorporate into final version of TBP#3.
Final version of TPB#3 ready for printing. Send out digital copies to backers!
Use final TBP#3 for both Hardcover and Omnibus.
Add commentary to HC
Send rough versions of HC to editors.
Send rough Omnibus to editors
Obtain comments from editors and incorporate into Omnibus and HC.
Final files ready for Printers.
Send out Digital copies to Backers!
Order TPB#3 and HCs from Printer.
Order Omnibus from another printer (I'm going to do a off-set printing on the Omnibus.)
Finish any personal artwork for Backers.
Books arrive, start the shipping process to all the backers!
It's a big list, but the majority of the heavy lifting it done, with the artwork nigh finished.
Later in the week, I'll send another post with TONS of new artwork!

Hello Backers!
Every 2 weeks I give you an update and here we go!
Thanks to one of the backers, I've went back to the TIME Stories Pariah game and made final, final, written in stone cards. All the cards are working. The story is a little muddy still (no pun intended) so I need to shape up the story so that non-book readers understand what's going on. Other than that it's DONE.
I got a new day-job starting next week, which will mean that my time to work on Pariah will cut down to 2 hours a night max, which is a major bummer, but we got bills here in the Salazar-home. The good news is that the last 2 weeks I've been busting my hump on this book.
5 new art pages were colored.
Inserted all new part pages in the InDesign file and am adjusting dialog, words and making things look good. We still need 20 pages from Jose. I'm doing the sound effects now. I'm not the best at it, I'd love to have a database of ai files of cool sound effects and guttural sounds of battle, mayhem and death.
After I get all of book 3 art, I will finish book 3. Then I will work in the hardcover, which should take around 20 hours. Once the hardcover is done, I will work on the Omnibus, which is putting it all together, (I want a better cover design) Then all of those are done, lastly I work on the Making Of Pariah digital book.
I spent most of my time last and this week working on this, and the more I do, the farther the finish line feels. We are getting there though.
If anyone wants to volunteer as an EDITOR, please let me know, I'll send you a copy of something to edit and give you credit in the book.
Not super happy about the cover of the Omnibus, I feel it's a little boring and not dynamic. Here is the current cover design. If you have some favorite book covers and images that might be a source of inspiration, please send them my way.
I want to share some images with you of new pages, but I am running out of non-spoiler stuff. Here's a couple not sure if you've seen them yet:
