First of all: this is weird for me because I've never done a purely author's note chapter... thing. I already have enough trouble making regular author notes, so this'll be fun. Sorta/Really/Maybe Not/Super fun. Ok. So. On to the whole purpose of this chapter thing (I don't know what to call it! It's not a chapter but it's more than a NOTE!): the next book! I need some help with deciding which to do first of the two books I have planned. The first is a Sparksize fanfic, and the other is a book/longer/extended version of a short story I've posted.
Sparksize: The book is based on the question: what if Capsize never died? I'm going to take it a step farther and add: what if Capsize never died, but Jordan did? Love Lost and Found (the title of the book- I also have the cover done) is going to be following some of the events of season 2 and how Capsize reacts to the events and characters, with a few original twists and happenings (happenings? Is that a good word? I couldn't think of another way to word it). I'd give you a really quick sneak peak, but after about ten minutes of searching I couldn't decide what to use so.... no sneak peak. Sorta/Really/Maybe Not/Super sorry.
Extended version: This will be almost exactly how it sounds, with a few differences. As a separate work, Dear Sparklez: The Full Story (the title of the book- I also have the cover done) will be using the original short story as a guideline. It will be in third person, and instead of being written as a collective of letters it'll be in-action; the present instead of the past. This'll give me the opportunity to provide multiple POVs and insights as to what the champions (and others) thought and felt about what goes on, as well as more detailed accounts about what happens in Ianite's letters- i.e Jordan and Claire's dinner date, how they met, ect. I'll also write events that weren't in the letters, and create a deeper background/account of people and places in the story. As a sneak peak: ..... well, you can go read the short story.
To clarify: BOTH of these books will get done eventually! I just can't decide which to do first. I have some work of Love Lost and Found done, but at the moment I have zero inspiration or motivation until I can get to a part that I know what to write and am excited to work on. On the opposite hand, I have absolutely no work on Dear Sparklez: The Full Story whatsoever; I don't even have a google doc created or a cover yet!
Also: I intend for LLaF to be a (hopefully) long book and have no end goal for it, whereas even though I'll try to extend DS:TFS, it can only go on for so long (and by long, I mean not even close to as long as LLaF).
In conclusion (what? Am I still in English class?): it depends on what you guys want. A book you know the basics of to be extended, lasting a short-ish while before it concludes again, or if you guys want a book that has no end, you have no idea of, and will hopefully last for a very long time. Neither will have a designated publishing schedule; it'll be whenever I can finish a chapter.
Note: If I do LLaF first, then I might do DS:TFS on the side. It certainly won't be published as often compared to if I did it first and solely.
ANOTHER note: Neither of these will be posted for the next two weeks to a month, to which I have a really good reason. I'm moving. Not only are (is?) my parents and I still renovating the house we're moving to, we're still packing, and then we're moving all the furniture on the tenth, and then we have three days to clean our old house, and then setting up internet (most important part, if you ask me), and THEN unpacking everything. So.... it'll take a while. I'll try to work on one/both/whatever-you-guys-decide on in between, but nothing fast.
Ahem. Remember when I said I'd have trouble writing this note? Ha. Ha. Guess what. I didn't. Anyways....... please help? -Pure
