In-Person Writing Sprints

Struggling with motivation and focus as you hammer away on your manuscript at home? Want to join a community of writers as we embrace the joys and pains (mostly pains) of writing together? Bring your laptop, pen & paper, old-school typewriter, or futuristic writing gadget, and join an enthusiastic community of science fiction and fantasy writers as we work on our current projects in the same space. The format will be similar to our online writing sprints: 30-minute blocks of focused, quiet writing time (the sprints), interspersed with breaks where we can chat, ask questions, and share our writing experiences.

Book Launch: The First War by Tao Wong

Come to Bakka-Phoenix Bookstore to celebrate launch of THE FIRST WAR, the third book in Tao Wong's *A Thousand Li* series! He'll be here joined in conversation by Ai Jiang.

War between the enemy states of Wei and Shen grows ever more inevitable. Wu Ying has been forbidden by the Verdant Green Waters sect to participate in the conflict. But there is more at stake than Wu Ying could have imagined when he began his study of magic and mystical martial arts: Wu Ying’s village—the family and friends who knew and loved him when he was only a farm boy—will be caught between the amassing armies. Now Wu Ying has a choice to make: Does he leave his people to their fate in favor of pursuing his sect’s ideals and his own ambitions? Or does he help them and give up on the chance for greatness, after all his hard-won progress? **About the Author:** Tao Wong is the author the *A Thousand Li* progression fantasy series and the *System Apocalypse* LitRPG series, among others. His work has been released in audio, paperback, hardcover, and ebook formats, and translated into German, Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, and several other languages. He was shortlisted for the UK Kindle Storyteller Award in 2021 for *A Thousand Li: The Second Sect*. The first three books in the *A Thousand Li* series are currently being republished in hardcover by Ace Books.
