I have been working all month on my sequel. It's so rewarding to be back in the saddle writing! Has anyone else here done a sequel?

I am considering writing a sequel to my early-childhood memoir, "Time Travel into Babyhood", but first this memoir and my 2 other books have to be published. (Publishing has stalled because of lots of time-taking real-life troubles.) And I might write another book, a humorous non-fiction narrative tale, titled "The Cats of Happy Cats Ranch" (we have 31 cats) before I start writing the sequel of my above memoir. I wish the day had 72 hours. So much to do, so much to write, so much to read, so little time.
Ceecee, I've written a *prequel* to my 'how I became bulimic' diary. It's my diary of falling in love with my school teacher. Just waiting for the proof copy from CreateSpace before I publish. ...
Working on my second book, covering another era entirely than my first memoir. It is great to be back in the flow again, but I must admit, this time around it's different. I'm more aware of structure and format and this inhibits my writing style somewhat. Ah well, once you know something, you can't unknow it. Hopefully I can find the perfect balance - happy writing everyone :)
I am also writing a sequel, again focusing on an entirely different area. Only problem is, it is taking so much tome to try and market Walking over Eggshells, that I'm only a fifth way through, after weeks and weeks!
It really is weird to write after you've published. I already know all the mistakes I made last time, and don't want to make them again! This time I'm writing parts of my memoir from my husbands point of view. So I am constantly interviewing him too. It's been fun though!Yours sound interesting. Natasha, I struggled with bulimia also. Glad you are free now!
