I need to write my next epic fantasy before thinking of Wolf Wood 4, but I have tentative plans to do at least a couple more novels. Book 3 was starting to seem a little early for ending things. There were all of these other interesting characters that would be fun to develop more, and I’d just brought Morgen’s sister in for a visit, and their dialogue was a blast to write. So, there’ll be three books in the series?Ī few days ago, I sent Book 3 off to my beta readers, and as I was writing the second half, I realized that while I’d wrapped up the original story I wanted to tell, there were quite a few more things I could see exploring in the little (little but witch- and werewolf-filled) town of Bellrock. I complain a lot, but I seem to be happiest when I have lots of work lined up and at least four book (or series) ideas waiting in line to be written.

This is how a light and easy fun summer project turns into three books and more of a time commitment than you had planned…īut I don’t mind. (Yes, yes, Balanced on the Blade’s Edge was a rare exception where the randy Sardelle and Zirkander were getting busy in a cave by Chapter 13…) A little UST or unresolved sexual tension is always fun after all. As most of you know, I like to make that hero and heroine work for it for a while. That was perfect since I’m not that great at writing stand-alone romance stories anyway. Until I realized the obvious solution was to write three books.

Maybe it would be a perfect project for a summer full of distractions.īut there was still the problem of a stand-alone novel being tough to market… It seemed like it could be a fairly short and simple story with just one point-of-view character. My mind came back to that inheriting-a-house-with-a-werewolf story. I had family coming to visit for the summer and a road trip planned, and I knew I’d have a hard time focusing on something long and involved. These were turning into some thick books by my standards (by most authors’ standards), and with numerous point-of-view characters, they were more complicated than the average story. I’d just finished the second, which had come in at something like 185,000 words, and Book 3 was looking meaty too. Oh, and don’t forget the space opera!īut then in May, I was in beast-mode, writing the third Dragon Gate novel and starting to feel like I needed a break. A random paranormal romance (as I was thinking of it then) among all the high fantasy, steampunk, and a single urban fantasy series. It also wasn’t going to be in a sub-genre of fantasy that I’d written in before, so I figured that might make it an even harder sell to my existing fans. With a stand-alone book… there’s none of that, unless you get lucky, and readers go check out your other stuff.

With series, you can spend more than you earn from sales on advertising for Book 1 on the assumption that some readers will carry on and buy the next books. Also, it’s a big pain to actually get a stand-alone book to sell. I was deep in Death Before Dragons at the time with an idea for an epic fantasy - Dragon Gate - prodding me and wanting attention.

I went as far as to order a cover for the book, but I didn’t put aside my other projects. What’s now Chapter 1 in Mind Over Magic is pretty close to how I imagined it a year ago. Because who just inherits a house without catches, right?Īnd because romances are always fun, I figured they’d hook up in the end (regular readers will know this is not new for me), but I couldn’t let that happen right away… I envisioned him leaping out at her car and trying to drive her off the property first. And the werewolf now known as Amar came along with the original idea. I actually had the idea for a woman inheriting a big rambling old house in a small town more than a year ago. What was the genesis of the story (yeah, I know, it’s super geeky to use words like genesis in every day conversation, but… you’ve read my books and know I love my words)? I thought it would be fun to do a little “behind the scenes” post to go along with the launch. Here are the links if you want to pick it up:Īnd if you haven’t read Book 1 (Mind Over Magic) yet, there’s a preview chapter on my blog here.
