Where Is She Going With This Series?!

This is me, demonstrating that I’m going somewhere, and I do know where. I have a plan. Sort of. Mostly.

If you’ve read Born of Water: An Elemental Origins Novel and/or Born of Fire: An Elemental Origins Novel then you’ll already be wise to the fact that there is a series going on here, and you’ll know that the 4 girls/women introduced in Born of Water are all friends, and each will be having their own Elemental Origins experience over the same summer.

But you’ll also have noticed that Water and Fire, while they have their own complete stories, are left open for more to happen. When you read a story and fall in love with a character, you can’t help but want to know what’s next. So for all those who have asked, will there be another story for Targa, and for Saxony? The answer is a resounding YES. Barring some unfortunate accident or untimely demise (mine), each girl will get another story (probably more than one) which will take you deeper into their world (not to mention element).

But FIRST I have to finish Born of Earth, Born of Æther, Born of Air (new character), and the ensemble story that will bring them all together, because the events that take place next in their lives have to happen after book 6 of the Elemental Origins Series of novels. That’s going to take me a bit of time, so I’m sorry for making you wait. I’m writing as fast as I can, but I refuse to release something that I’m not proud of, or won’t stand up next to something else I’ve published in terms of quality. Ideally, you’ll love each story more than the one before it, but I can’t guarantee that because you might just be more of a ‘fire’ person than an ‘earth’ person. Do let me know which you think you are, I’d be curious to know.

As I’m working on these full-length novels, my plan is to produce novella length works to launch in between to keep the characters fresh in your minds and to enrich the overall experience. For example, right now, I’m working on a story (which I hope to launch this Feb) about what happens to Saxony when she gets home from Venice (before she gets together with her friends). How does her family react to her? What about the card Enzo gave her? This story will be a sort of ‘bridge’ but I intend to make it exciting in its own right. I have a few other novella ideas up my sleeve, too.

What we’ll have at the end of this (if there is an end – yikes!) will be the main Elemental Origins Series, but also 5 individual series of books branching off from those, each one following a different element/character. The Water series, The Fire series, etc.

Confusing? Yeah, I know. You should try being me. Anyhoo, that’s about the best I can do to explain it at this point. I hope it helped somewhat! Back to work, me!
