Since being off for three days this week, I’ve had a lot of time to work on my writing and catch up on my reading. Much of thoughts lately (when I think about my next work) have been on Ashlyn and Ciaran’s story.
I remember as I researched and laid out the details for those 4 books that I really wanted to carry it over. We don’t know what happened to the baby that was kidnapped from its cradle. We don’t know what is going to happen to those characters and if there will ever be a war with the goblins again. We don’t know the powers of those twin daughters (especially the one that was kidnapped), and we don’t know when they will notice her gone.
I put off research on those books because I needed a break. I can’t tell you how full my head was with details from Yeats’s writings and from other sources that I checked. In fact, I realized yesterday that I have a whole file folder on my computer with that information.
Maybe it’s time to start sorting through research and plotting a story. 1 book? 2 books? 5 books?
Hmm? I think I’ll ponder it all.
