Today I give an announcement: I am taking a break from 'Kingdom Bonders' books 2 and 3.
Here, have some rough drawings of my dragon character, Scel :)
I wrote the first book in the trilogy, and it ended without need of a sequel. It is now on Amazon Kindle for anyone interested.
I did write the rough draft of a second book, and it turned out very nicely, but I had to end with a devastation. I needed a third book...which I have just barely started. And...yeah, it's not going very well. So I'm taking a break. Maybe I will return to books 2 and 3 and finish the trilogy, but for now, it's really not necessary. My first book was fine by itself.
Aah, I feel much better now. I guess it was kind of stressful feeling like I had to do more. I don't.
Now I have the rest of the summer to come up with a new book idea for this autumn when I take OYAN again!
I am currently reading The Two Towers for the first time ever. I read The Fellowship of the Ring a long while back when I attempted to read the entire trilogy before our yearly watching of the movies. I was much too slow, so when the time came to watch the movies, I lost all interest in the books. I am determined to read the second and third books before October. Shouldn't be too hard...I'm already halfway into The Two Towers and loving every word of it. J. R. R. Tolkien is a truly inspiring author.
I'm dying to visit the ocean. We haven't had a chance to go this year, but this week looks promising!
Let's see...
Oh! I found this awesome writing blog. Definitely check it out - the author is very inspiring: Story Forger
If you have any suggestions for what kind of "writing help" posts I should attempt to do next, please tell! Have a lovely Sunday :)
I've been to the ocean once this year, and might be going back again soon!
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get to go to "your" ocean this year too! :D
