I've been looking at the word "Epilogue" printed on the latest page of Songlord for a while now. So, yes, that means that I'm almost finished, the first draft of the entire Songlord manuscript is coming to an end, after about 8 months from when I started it last December. I know pretty much what's going to happen in the Epilogue, barring some details which will come to mind when I'm writing. It's a big scene, and I want to make sure I'm able to write it as well as I've envisioned it in my head.
And as is inevitable, thoughts of how the second Songlord book is going to go have been creeping into my head as well. It's best for now if I keep notes on them rather than writing them out in full, starting up the second Songlord before I've even done any editing of the first one would not be the best idea. And my plan isn't to edit Songlord straight away, I have a kind of alternating conveyor-belt system going, where now I can approach Kosmos more as a reader than a writer, so I'll be better able to edit it.
All part of the long road to publication. I'll let you know when I finally write Songlord's Epilogue and get on to editing Kosmos.
