I spent the bulk of my week getting the sequel to my first novel (publishing pending) written. I’m at about 42k on my first pass and probably 2/3 of the way through the story. This weekend I’ll be focusing on a breadcrumb reveal to a major turning point in the story, framing one character as a trauma driven monster, and another as a total psychopath. These reveals will all twist into the finale of the story bringing a multiple arcs to a sudden and destructive conclusion.
Betrayal plays a huge part in this twist. Trust, love and family torn apart by the past and the inevitability of suppressed traumas.
I’m like 10,000 words behind target and really struggling to hash out the specifics of the plot. 😰
Just keep going! Surprise yourself.
