Starting Over

So, you may have noticed a change in the progress widget on the sidebar.

It has been reset.

This is because I reached a certain point in the story and although I love the world and characters, I realized I’d been rushing them through what had become an uninteresting set of plot points. It was fun to see the world and meet the characters, but what they were doing didn’t FEEL important.

I found myself frustrated with the balance between the Race they were running, the opponents who were causing trouble, and exactly how the timelines didn’t quite add up to a thrilling adventure.

So Mr. Moore and myself went back to the drawing board and are keeping the good and throwing away the stuff that wasn’t working.

Yes, it’s a lot of work, but it will be very very much worth the effort and the time lost.

My alpha readers were not quite as frustrated with it as I was, but hopefully they’ll agree that the new version is much tighter and much more exciting.
