So, Preptober is here, well we’re actually right in the middle of it and I’m doing pretty well so far. Though I haven’t really updated much here on the blog, I’ve been working really hard on the prep for book 3 of the First to Fight series. Since the title was already leaked over on my Twitch, I guess I should call it Third to Come Home (Book 3). Anyway, so far I’ve got all my characters figured out, their conflicts figured out and I decided that this book would be a little different.
In both First to Fight and Second to Fall, the story was only told from Collin and Kyle’s POV in Third to Come Home which will be different. It’s going to be told from two points of view. Both Kevin’s and Addy’s POV will be told in alternating chapters.
Today I’m working on more of the actual outline and going to get Act 1 completely outlined. So you know I’ve got my plotting journal out and doing everything in that, but I’ve also started doing some plotting on my Ipad, I always forget I can put documents into my Goodnotes and use it that way. I’m loving this method more than I thought I would. Anyway, as I said this book, plotting-wise, is coming along great.
Sadly, I had wanted Third to Come Home to be released later this year, I don’t see that happening so I’m going to push it back to 2023. I ended up getting sick last month and wasn’t able to get any work done on the book, so that’s the main reason. Life happens and we just have to go with it. That’s what I keep reminding myself.
Anyway, that’s what I have for our first Preptober Diaries for this year. I look forward to getting back in the swing of things and hopefully posting more here on the blog. I hope you all have a great week. For now, I’m going to go work on the plot/outline and get ready for the concert I’m seeing tonight. No, I’m not in Busan, South Korea. I’m going to be watching BTS live tonight on Weverse. Yep, I’m a huge BTS fan and can’t wait to watch them tonight. Anyway, I best get to work. I hope you all have a great day and a fantastic weekend!
