Anyone remember the 'more info to come' that I promised it the recent August recap post? Well, here it is! :D
Introducing...a prequel to Dandelion Dust! Yup, that's right. My beloved recently-published novella is going to have another (hopefully shorter) novella that will chronologically succeed it!
The title isn't official yet. I know I want the title to have the word 'summer' in it. And I'd like for it to be only one or two words so that it goes nicely with Dandelion Dust and Wanderings (sequel to DD *isnt sure if I've ever mentioned it here before* *doesnt think so*).
Summer, This Summer, Our Summer, One Summer... I've came up with a million possibilities. XD Right now, I'm leaning more toward This Summer. Because 1) I JUST LIKE IT, and 2) it matches the whole first-person-present which will be the style of this book as well.
I can't really talk about the setting without being repetitive and boring, since it's the same as Dandelion Dust (think 'ranch in Oklahoma'). Same goes for the characters, as they're only a year or so younger in this one...and did I mention adorable as ever?!
This will start the summer when Charity visits her friend Hannah's family, meets Ryder, and...yeah. *squeals* It's gonna be ammmaazzee.

I'm considering doing a split POV with Charity and Hannah...but at the same time, I kinda want to keep it as just Charity's POV, like DD and the same as Wanderings will most likely be.
I can't offer snippets since I haven't written that much of the book. Mainly, because I've working on this WIP and... <3 <3 <3 I recently updated my outline, and I kinda feel like the plot has turned a bit, but THATS OKAY. It's going to be fabulous. XD #randomparagraph #thatdoesnotbelonginthispost #whatever
Back to This Summer... Anyone want some sneak-peek pics from the very-sparse storyboard? :D
Did you enjoy this post? Have you read Dandelion Dust? Would you like to see a writing update spotlighting Wanderings? Or another WIP? I'm open to suggestions! :D

Yay!!! It sounds/looks amazing <3 I'm such a fan of these characters :) A title with Summer sounds fine, and if the preceding adjective also began with 's' well then... just like DD it could be SS(?) But whatever you have planned is good. I just like thinking up titles :F
ReplyDelete*:D
DeleteOr you know it could be the adjective coming after. (Eg if you had something called Sunshine Summer you could flip it to Summer Sunshine) eh just me and random talking sorry :P
Aww, thanks, Lisa! ^_^ Ohhh, very good and valid point there! Hehe, thinking up titles is fun...I'm just not very good at it. XD
DeleteNo, thank you! Something else for me to think on. ;)
Dandelion Dust is on my TBR right now. I can't wait to see how the prequel and sequel go! They'll be added to my TBR as well when they're out. I can't wait!
