As I write this, Concealed (book 1) has been live on Amazon for nearly three weeks (time has flown past), and Revealed (book 2) is on pre-order, for release on Monday, 30 July, a little over a week away.
I'm delighted that Concealed has been read and enjoyed by people apart from friends and family. It's thrilling and humbling to know that my words are being read by others.
After the excitement of uploading the first book and sending it out into the world, setting up book 2 to be released was still exciting, and still nerve-wracking, not just for the thought that others will now be able to read about the characters I've lived with for a long time, but also the more ordinary frustrations of a slow internet connection and the disappearing book cover. All sorted in time.
Writing the second book was at least as hard as the first. The first book introduces the characters and the world, and the second continues their journeys and their stories. I need to make sure the characters are consistent, or grow and change in believable ways, and this book introduces new characters, too.
As with the first, I hope that readers enjoy the book and, better yet, want to continue on Arrow's journey.
