So... I might be stuck with what to write for the Hidden Wishes series book 2. I mean, I know the start (written) and I know my end, I even know roughly the theme. Everything in the middle is a GIANT blank.

While I am a panster, this might be a bit too blank. The last time I wrote without even a vague direction, it was book 1 of this very series. And it has the lowest ratings of all my books...

I'm not adding  write book 6 of the System Apocalypse for a few reasons including the fact that I need to consider what I'm doing there. My choice will make a HUGE difference in the way it's written so... yeah. 

So. Question for all:

I'm so glad you liked it. I struggle with the entire series as I don't have a clear plot for each book. It frustrates me because nothing that comes to mind feels right. But i'm not stopping writing. There's why I have so many series... ;)

Plots are more difficult than they seem. I have a problem there as well. I can create interesting characters. I can even create a relatable villain. Somehow that doesn't equal plot. However I'll patiently wait...okay not so patiently. I just re-read the apocalypse again! Thanks for writing. I love your creativity!
