Funny how
not having a title makes a piece of writing feel even less than a draft. I’ve been working away at the plot for the book that follows the trilogy and leads
the way to the next series on Gar’nyse. But I didn’t have a title! Just a
working ‘Gar’nyse tale’ title which felt very blah. Also, while I knew what
things I wanted to ‘tie up’ in this book, I still wasn’t inspired. Thankfully
though, I got back into my running last week and POW! It hit me *grin* I
figured out what the first half of the story needed. I chatted excitedly to
Glenn about it on the way home from the supermarket that night then complained
that I didn’t yet have a title. Glenn’s a person who’s great at crosswords
and pretty quick with figures – two things that evade me completely. Anyway, he
got me to rattle off the titles then promptly said, ‘AfterBurn, a tale of
Gar’nyse.’

So there
you have it. Two things that had been annoying me for months solved, just like
that.

The first
half of AfterBurn will be about those left behind at the Castle, and how they
cope waiting for the news. The second half will be the return of everyone. It
will be a full on tale that will lead onto the next series that I’m plotting.

Can’t wait
to share more with you all! Guess I better get back to the drafting of it then
*grin*
