Things are picking up for me on my book. I finished my first novel last year in November called "October" It took me parts of four years to write. I say parts because I only wrote the book in the month of October. Hence, the title. It goes beyond that, however, as the story itself takes place in that month.
Since finishing it, I have felt accomplished, happy, confident and eager to start a sequel which I did in February. Called "October Sun" it takes place four years later where the first one left off and so far I am about a third of the way through. Nine chapters so far and 22k words (102 pages). Originally I felt these would be two separate book with the second being a stand alone. But now I am considering combining them into one larger novel calling the first "Session 1" and the second part "Session 2"
A ton of options I have and I am quite happy with my progress since starting in 2013. Regardless, the tough road is still ahead as am editor and publisher would be my next steps.
At this point, I am unsure how far I can take this. All I know is I have a bit of an understanding of what I can do and hope that I can do something with it. Should be an interesting road ahead.
