You need to write! Outline your project so you have structure and then write an hour a day. I also recommend getting into a writer's meetup group weekly to go over your material with other writers.

I'm working on book #2 for this series.

I try to write an hour a day, 5 times a week. A lot can get accomplished by doing this. I still keep this going with this book even though it's complete, but I'm devoting myself to marketing, and... I have started writing book #2 in this series!

I'm a big fan of studying the many unanswered conspiracy theories out there. There are so many unsolved puzzles. Years ago I started a debate in a religious class and brought up the topic that if we replaced any story about angels in the bible with travelers from another planet, it tended to make sense. A lighter could make them the fire god that could start a fire from their hands. A flashlight would project light out of their hands, very angelic to the time. That was the starting point, I then created the world of the planet Heafon (Heaven) where aliens that looked like us, grew workers on Earth from their own genes, and etc. I layered in answers to several conspiracy theories, and it all blossomed from there.
