Revamp ire
So, the quote about a writer becomes an author after he or she has written 1,000,000 words hit me today. A million words is a lot. I have 48 pages written so far, and 32,006 words total. That puts 666.719 words per page. It'll take me 1499 pages to hit the million words goal. That is either an enormous book, or a series. That means I need a larger overarching plot. I'll be revamping everything that I've written so far after I nail down all the loose edges, and that irks me a little. I've got a pretty good idea of what's going to happen, but I need to put in time travel if I'm going to have that, a peppering of Chekhov's guns etc.


In the meantime, please let me know what you're thinking about the characters. I'm thinking I want each of the new books to be from a different perspective. Right now, I'm looking at Unanda, Laur, Fuybek, J'mokoh, Jhaqoh, and Mahrnog, but what about Akyiko, Kamosa, Rynaugh, Bodhi, Sumili, Shkerqi, Ashtas, or the rest of the Akina Balaa? You, the audience, don't really know some of these people very well, but a book from any of their perspectives would be interesting, well as interesting as Kalar's. Oh, Laur might be the Dreambreaker.
