Whooot!<br /><br />I planned this to be a trilogy all along, but didn't think I could write it all without going back and making changes, so it wasn't an accident. I know the story needs tightening up, though, more focus. And I write fantasy - I mean... stand alone fantasies are hard to find, period! So I'm not worried about selling it. I mean, every new author I've found has a trilogy, at least. I don't think it's bad at all. I say, if you having something with serial potential - go for it! But if you feel it can be a single, go for that too.<br /><br />bettieleebettieleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02113663226939801759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391971838814490454.post-8615066429280261812009-08-18T21:01:50.238-07:002009-08-18T21:01:50.238-07:00Wow, I really miss having a cat.

But I can't help it, I just tend to make those connections beyond a point where the sane would stop.<br /><br />I've got a novel that has (I would like to think, it's probably more of a delusion) a beginning, a middle and an end, but that novel is just a slice of the totality of everything that is going on. I can't help thinking things through to a point where a full accounting of the story would be a trilogy at the very least--there's just something very realistic (to me) about complexity. Not profundity or being convoluted, but complexity, sure.<br /><br />I guess this is all to say: I completely sympathisize with accidentally birthing something bigger than a novel. I still think it's possible to shape the ungainly thing into something that stands alone.Salishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11845741086758175043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6391971838814490454.post-40747803737943832272009-08-18T11:11:02.573-07:002009-08-18T11:11:02.573-07:00Fantastic, babe!
