When you're the only one who knows your story
June 24, 2018
Recently, I finished my first draft of "Black Swan Antithesis", the sequel to "Black Swan Planet."
Now I find myself in a peculiar situation that only authors will understand - I'm the only person in the world who knows this story. Sure, I have beta readers started on it, and am getting feedback as they make progress, but there's nobody for me to share an inside joke with who knows the entire plot.
I found myself at wits end, not sure what to do with myself while I'm waiting. So I created a video to promote the first book - which you can find here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFf1r...
While that was fun, it kept me busy for a few hours. So I did what I knew I needed to do, and I began book 3 in the trilogy, "Black Swan Empire." And now I have new characters that nobody will know for a long, long time. But I have to write, and the more I get done now while I'm waiting for others is bonus, or "dual processing" as I like to call it.
Stay on the lookout for book 2. We're working to fast-track it as much as possible, without sacrificing quality!
