Before X (Lanna Ruik's Story)
I am seeing a pattern in the recommendations regarding X (Captain Ruik's Adventure). Although some suggestions I can incorporate into the current book, it may be beneficial to go with the proposition of a prequel.
Great world-building opportunity here as well as an easy 'carrot to catch' for me; the story framework is already written. Next would be to "fill in the blanks" while I get to jump up and down at the notion of completing the drama portion (without neglecting action, most certainly).
Topics that were asked for more detail include:
+ Lanna's time aboard the Grey Shadow. This might get very uncomfortably dark, but will be much easier to approach since we know how the story ends already
+ Specifics on how Lanna went from stowaway to captain of her own vessel
+ Isaac's background, dialogue and relationship to Captain Ruik, including previous history
+ More about Lyss
+ More descriptions and feelings, "tap into your inner artist". I think I can do this better with a backstory since the focus is on the character and setting rather than events
One idea was to include all of this into X (Captain Ruik's Adventure). With hesitancy, I say "yeah", and will likely create a double volume or extended version to accommodate.
There may be another re-write for X (Captain Ruik's Adventure) as well. Will look into additional comments to see what should be incorporated if so.
