Brandon initially tried to start work on ''The Aztlanian'' in May 2014.

This resulted in the entire month being taken up with research instead of writing,. atAt the end of the month, however, he felt the research he had done was not enough and so he shelved the book until he could do more.{{sots ref|2014}}
