Sequel Writing

I have begun penning my first sequel (to "Hunting Artemis") and I'm bouncing off the walls excited about it. Sequels tend to be my favorite kind of stories (I know many people hate movie sequels but I find them fun even if the plots don't match the potential) because the characters have been framed up and the action can really hit the glass right at the jump.

While I have been outlining I have been horrified by the news and current events, and I am using those feels to pour onto the page. When I created Isisa and her idealist revolution I knew it would be a perfect cast into which I could pour such frustrations but I had no idea it would be in such a horrible climate. 

So many things have changed in the world around me since I first thought of Pollux Max, but few of those changes have caused the basic plot to be altered. Essentially I have only discovered new details to paint with.

As I have been on this journey I have focused largely on learning as much as I can through this process. All I ever wanted to do (since being 8 years old) was write stories and share them with the world. Now I am doing that, and I am trying to hone my skills and develop my creative process so that I can honor my readers through my work.

I'm well aware that "Hunting Artemis" (link to read it) ended in far too cliff hanger fashion, and I want to give those of you who read it a truly remarkable tour de force in the upcoming sequel. I am planning on finishing Isisa's saga back to back so I can take a wide angle view in my writing.

Your thoughts and feedback during this process is invaluable to me, so any messages you can send me about any of my writing will be appreciated and beneficial as I grow. I consider each reader to be more precious than gold. I am honored and my goal is to be a good use of your time.

Looking to the future, I hope to look back on the sequels I am writing and learn from them. The sequels and series I write in the future should benefit from every lesson. In the meantime, I hope that I can entertain you and give you a good story to remember, so that when you look back you will say that you were glad you found this site and this author. I only hope that I have honored you and that you will come back and see how I've grown.

Thanks! Have a great day!
