Updating

The year is half over and I've discovered I'm not nearly so far along with the sequel as I hoped. Instead I'm re-editing the first volume. Yeah there were that many mistakes. Thanks to those that reviewed Chronicle and making me do better. If I understand Amazon updating, anyone who has purchased a digital version will get the update. So far that is where the sales have been.

I did manage to get another volume of mandalas finished and published and am about half way through creating the forth volume. I wish I was as prolific a writer as I am a creator of mandalas.

Writing in general is easy, writing something worth reading is a lot of work. I'm envious of Stephen King who just writes. From his book, he doesn't outline. The idea he predicates a novel on develops as he writes.

I have to plan and think out where the story is going, what the characters do and how they interact. I write little backstories about the characters and their primary motivations.

Even before finishing the first volume, I knew where the sequel was going and how it would end. I only need to fill in all the parts in between.
