Mikkell K. Khan Definitely have to say my readers. They wanted to see a interquel between the events of the two books that it got me thinking, and then expanding, making it a short story, and of course, reaching a 80,000 word novel that now lovingly entitled 'Hail To The Queen'.
Mikkell K. Khan I sat down to write and before I knew it, wrote 20,000 words in one sitting. It was such a powerful experience that I didn't even notice the power alert icon before my laptop battery died.
Mikkell K. Khan I'll be releasing The Enixar Book Set Volumes 1 - 3 for my birthday (July 5th). Its a collection of the three The Enixar books I've published.

It would be the first time I'm actually releasing a book on my birthday (normally I would do the preorders on that day because the book wasn't ready), so I'm pretty excited for it.
Mikkell K. Khan Write, don't wait.

The art of writing isn't a skill that can be mastered overnight. It's something you need to put your all into and work on until it becomes second nature for you; this is no easy feat! While the beginning may seem like torture (at least initially), at least by then I'll know if my idea has potential or not: which means less wasted time as opposed to never knowing what might have been possible had I written before now-what could've been?

It's like a muscle, it needs to be trained and utilized in order to get better. And trust me it does. I've found that as I release more books, with each one, the writing gets stronger and my readers appreciate it.
Mikkell K. Khan I think it's really cool how I started with the idea of making movies, but then shifted to writing.

The worlds that my mind created were so big and complex, and being creative in this way felt more natural than ever before!

It was a no-brainer for me to take on penning these colossal tales because one thing is certain: people get what I'm going for (most of them anyway...lol). They want MORE from ME!! And you know what? I'm glad because I have a lot more to give. :)
Mikkell K. Khan The writer must have the best tools for creativity and be confident in themselves.

The blank page is a beautiful thing but can also intimidate some, so don't worry about it being perfect because if you write all of your ideas down before editing them to make them sound amazing then there will always be something waiting for an idea that may not come.

I truly believe the ideas are coming from the Ether and the only way to get it going it to write and pull it from the creative stream.
Mikkell K. Khan In the fifth age of Middle Earth, I would love to see how things go after all these sacrifices were made for a world that seems so perfect.
Mikkell K. Khan Creating a new universe for readers to explore and unravel.

Creating an entire world with its own history, culture, creatures and people is no easy task but it’s worthwhile in the end because you get to create anything your imagination desires!
