Coming to bookstores next August, Extraordinary by Zelmer Wilson

I'm always writing. My debut novel, In the Middle, became available on Amazon.com and other online bookstores and I didn't stop writing. I wrote a second novel, which I'm currently editing. It's called Bobbie Lamont and it is a sequel of sorts to In the Middle. The main character of Bobbie Lamont is Bobbie Lamont, who was the young lady that Miller dated while visiting his mother and sisters in Birmingham, Alabama in the summer of 1990. She discovers that Miller has written a novel inspired by their relationship. At the end, they are reunited.
After I finished writing Bobbie Lamont, I felt that there was more to the story of Miller Hoffman and Bobbie Lamont. Thus, the idea for my third novel was conceived. I'm calling it Extraordinary and it is both a prequel and sequel to Bobbie Lamont. I haven't written the first draft yet, because I'm still outlining it.
It will have seventy-five chapters and yesterday, I finished chapter fifty. I will be done outlining it on October 17. After that, I will start writing the first draft. I hope to finish writing the first draft on this upcoming New Year's Eve.  And I then will start the laborious task of editing it, which isn't as fun as writing.
I was recently asked how many novels do you want to write? I gave two answers, one short and the other one long. The long answer is that I have, after my third novel, at least eight more novels that I want to write. And the short answer is that I want to write as many novels as I can before I die.
Why?
Because I'm a writer and that's what I do.
