Although the Hesitant Hero was originally a side project while I tried to figure out some of the plot points of my main story, it quickly developed into the biggest writing project I’ve ever attempted. As of December 2025 there are rough drafts of four volumes written, totalling well over 250.000 words. A lot of … Continue reading The Hesitant Hero Volume 1 – Recap
