Writing Update

Alright so recently I reached approximately 20 thousand words in Dynasty and some of you may know that I tend to use that as a major mile marker. 216247_10151632534930520_1496248641_n Usually if I can get that far then the rest tends to come quickly. However as I was reading over what I had written I found myself bored. I was basically four chapters in and nothing had happened. I had hardly even touched on most of the main conflict that I want to go into.

Part of the problem I know is that I am probably spending to much time trying to catch up the readers as to what has happened in the previous books as well as what has happened between books. (This book takes place a few years after the third one. Nothing particularly exciting but stuff that needs to be known all the same.)

As such I am currently putting the book down, for like the third time, and reworking what

I have so that it does a better job of keeping the readers interest. CWG8L0cWsAAzAWY After all if I am bored with the story I can only imagine how bored you would be.

That is not to say that everything I have written so far is a wash, because it’s not and I will certainly keep the spirit of things but it needs to be reworked and I don’t see myself progressing any further until I have.

I am sorry that this book is taking so long to write. I feel frustrated myself considering how fast I put out the past three but I refuse to put out anything that I do not think is any good. I will not simply put something out because I feel like I need to.

What does this mean for my next release. Well, I’m not 100% sure. Before I had vowed not to work on anything until after I had finished Dynasty 4, at the very least, but now I fear I will need to walk away for a little bit and come back to it. Or maybe not. Only time will tell. I do have some interesting stories in the works that I do think you will enjoy so we will see where that takes me. dorymeme
