It's been pretty slow going as of late. I have managed to get a lot of work done, but other things keep getting in the way.
I had to go back and review Nightwalker, there were a few issues that had to be fixed, which took some time. But I think I got them all sorted out. At least until the next time I notice something wrong and have to go through the whole process all over again.
Unfortunately that means it had to be re-uploaded to Amazon for them to go back through and review, which for the Kindle version shouldn't take to long, but the print copy is going to take a little bit of time.
That's ok, it's going to give me more time to work on Cherubim and get this all sorted out. I'm on Chapter Thirteen, editing and revising twenty something more chapters is going to take a bit to do, especially with my work schedule, but I can handle it. Slowly but surely.
On another note, I've been jotting down notes for the next book, thinking of things I want to add, little conversation pieces and the like. I think I'm starting to formulate a pretty good idea of what I want the story to be and how to get to the ending I want.Problem is going to come in with the fact that this isn't a story I've written down before. Least not in its entirety. Certain elements are going to be gleaned from previous handwritten notebooks, but not to much. So this is pretty much uncharted territory.
I've also got some other ideas percolating here and there in my head. I'm thinking a spin-off trilogy that's going to take place in another part of the country, that has to wait until another book is out to set the scene for it. That's going to take a while. I think it might be a good idea to show Vampire society from within, and from the perspective of a single house, rather than how other characters are viewing it from the outside. Probably going to be something very political in that regard. Not sure yet.
The second spin-off I can actually do anytime. And this one I'm probably going to work on at some point. Just have to get a good jumping off point to go from. This one will involve how humanity reacts to and perceives the supernaturals from a law enforcement kind of perspective. Not sure how that's going to go, but it's already filling my head with lots of ideas. Probably going to be mystery/supernatural crime driven sort of thing. But I won't know fully until I get there.
Until then, lots more work on editing and revising Cherubim to go before I can get started on anything else. I am really enjoying the whole process though. As aggravating as it can be.
