So GOMAM is finally finished and published! I literally can’t believe that I’ve made it this far and there were so many times when I thought I should just give up and stop the project. Yet, I pulled through and I’m thankful to know that I could do something like this. Now, I’m thinking about book 2 in the series…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The thing is I know how the series will end and I know it will be at least three books, so don’t worry this second book is not the end! I also had a lot of rough plot points for upcoming books. However, since I’ve been working on the first book for so long, the enormity of tackling the second book alone is really hitting me. I’ve got to take care of a lot of characters, plot threads, worldbuilding, etc. Still, I’m happy that I’ve been able to find resources that have jumpstarted my ability to tell a good story and edit one. These resources primarily being classes and articles from creators that are pursuing something similar and sharing their knowledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I think about the plot of the next book, I’m going to be exploring the elements, primarily focusing on water. I’m basically going to be working on my own water tribe, what that looks like, myths around it, the complicated history of it… Unlike ATLA (Avatar the Last Airbender), I want the water tribe to be warm and tropical with foliage and beaches. It’s going to be really fun and complex, so that’s what I’ll be doing come NaNoWriMo 2021. I mean, I literally have my outline document open right now and I’m excited\/scared to try to untangle all my thoughts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other news, I came up with so many other story ideas while I was writing GOMAM. I don’t know the full scope of them and I don’t think any of them have a plot at this point, but the vibes are there. On top of that, each one has a playlist, so it’s practically written in the stars. I will give you a little tidbit of what’s on my mind:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
