So it begins

Mikhail Vrubel again!I'm 4K into The Valleys of the Earth, the follow-up to Cover Him with Darkness .

I'm scared, tbh.

I'm scared I'll end up repeating myself - metaphors, similes, theological arguments.
I'm scared Milja's relationship with Azazel is too abusive for contemporary readers.

I'm really scared I can't write anything as good as that first volume. Because I think I've set the bar way high, truth be told.

All I can do it write it out, though.
