Writing a Series

I am writing a four book series.  I have Book One rough draft complete.

Yesterday, I plotted out the next two books, in longhand.  I worked on it before I went to work and then while I was on break, and lunch, I plotted some more.

I wanted to plot out the future books because I want to make sure what I put in Book One will line up with the future books.  

I will have the same characters in the all the books.  

The locations will be the same.

I bought magazines cut out pictures for the characters and hung them on a bullitine board in my office, so I  can see them everyday.  

I am going to live with these Characters for the next couple of years, so I want to see them and get to know them.

While I am working on the re-write of Book One.....I will be writing the rough draft for Book Two.

I want to have both books published next year.  I can do this if I focus and don't wander off and start another book with a totally new idea, which I have done in the past.

So what are you working on??  A Series, A stand alone book???

Want to get published in 2019???

I am going to blog about my writing process and how I write.  Leave comments on your daily writing habits and accomplishments and together we will be published in 2019.

This book is how I wrote a short story every month, including my writing and publishing schedule.  You can also write and publish a chapter a month, and start receiving royalty checks now and not a year from now.  This is what I did when I was learning all about self-publishing.  I created the Me VS Zombies series.

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Writing Everyday

I am in awe of people who can write everyday.  I have heard that for years.  Write Everyday, even if it is just one word, one sentence or 1,000 words. I believe it.  Writer's write.  It is that simple. There are people on Facebook, posting their word count.  I am in awe of those people. I try to write everyday, but it does not always work out that way for me. I guess what I am trying to say, it that don't feel bad if you don't write for one day.  You are still a writer. I know that this is NANO month and you are suppose to write everyday and at the end of the month, have written 50,000 words.  Which is awesome.  The way I am going, I am not going to make it.  I have no excuse but I have headaches everyday and I mean everyday.  Some days are better than others.  A lot of the headaches are sinus headaches.  I am not using this as an excuse.  I know that others have worse problems in their lives. So if you are a...
