Of course, that doesn't mean I'll actually get around to writing them. We'll see how the first one is received. :) <br /><br />However, I've poured so much time and energy into this first story, that I fear that I'll never be able to match those levels in a sequel. Sure, I'll be able to skip over all the mistakes I made the first time around, but I still have my doubts that subsequent stories will be as good as the first.Chemist Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09738272332470397248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4079552159314645865.post-22681700521491846662013-04-03T10:33:37.627-07:002013-04-03T10:33:37.627-07:00Yay!!!

As I write them both, I think, alright, I'm totally going to do a sequel for these! However, I think it's easier to think these thoughts while the book is still a WIP than when it's being published. There's no pressure on me right now. No one expects anything but me.

My sequel's plans are something like 'Do it bigger and better than the first book.' <br /><br />Decidedly unhelpful. <br /><br />The thing I struggle with for sequels is that I don't want them to feel like I'm treading the same ground again. There's always the danger that they'll be repetitive. They could fall into sophomore slump land, so yeah, sequels give me the heebeegeebys.
