The Long Crawl
Ok, so while it is a little late to be writing a blog about The Rise of Kings, published as it is and beyond my editorial powers, I can keep track of my progress as I wade through the second in The Flameweaver's Prophecy series: The Hearts of Nations.
My first draft of it was excruciatingly short for a novel, particularly one that was supposed to expand on The Rise of Kings, and the initial feedback I received from beta readers was to the same effect.
So now it begins; the relentless slog through the manuscript in an attempt to slow down and pad out what I had first hastily scribbled. As well as correcting more than several embarrassing spelling mistakes.
Once more into the etc. etc.
Wish me luck.
