Just this week I started writing the first draft on the prequel to my debut novel
Falling Up. First chapter is done, and I've done another 600 words or so on chapter 2.
Although I published in February, I finished the first draft on that novel in November last year. I've been editing and promoting it ever since, and planning, plotting, outlining the prequel and the sequel ever since. And writing the occasional scene that grabbed me particularly hard. Over a year since I was simply writing a novel. I had no idea I was missing it so much. I just knew, at the beginning of the week, that I HAD to start now. I couldn't wait any longer, even though there is much of the pre-first-draft work to be done still before I can finish.
I love writing!
