Redemption 3 is getting huger(r)

It was huge before, but right now I have 377 pages of mostly new Redemption 3 material written and about 125 pages of old material to edit, mesh or weed out. That’s 186k words right now. Big book. Very big. And I’m still writing the new stuff that will mesh with old stuff or replace it. Redemption 2 was almost 150k.

The remaining books won’t need this huge rework, though some stuff will be altered or removed to fit with the new ending of R3.

I’m thinking, though, that I may need to cut the ending material of the old R3 at a different point and tag it to The Sun Bane. It will be an evil cliffhanger, though, if I do that. It’s that or keep it big, maybe charge an extra buck for the larger book size??? Or keep it the same price despite the size???

I’ve spent most of the morning working on, yes, more new material. I still haven’t gotten to the pivotal fight scene that messes everyone up. Seriously, I may have no choice but to split this book.

What about an R4? I could have four books in the Redemption set instead of three. Hrmm…

Edit: For those wondering why I’m doing a virtually new version of R3, it’s because six years of mental settling gave me enough space to see some   plot poos, character flaws and avenues that should have been dealt with but weren’t.
