No cliffhangers in the middle of the climax. They could be read out of order, just an appreciation for the history would be missing. :)Laura Paulinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06503090226508079501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6963015679650968932.post-78900505622907034382013-10-09T11:24:44.622-04:002013-10-09T11:24:44.622-04:00I'm writing what will be a series, though I wa...I'm writing what will be a series, though I want each book in it to be a complete novel with loose ends pretty well tied up. I do think that in series that are more like one big novel--- like Lord of the Rings---- it is perfectly fine to post 'spoilers' in book 2 about what happened in book 1--- though perhaps one should wait until after the first few chapters that are often available in a free sample on the book selling sites. And in any series one can't completely avoid mentioning what went on before, especially any events that changed things for a major character.Nissa Annakindthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16289000116822109714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6963015679650968932.post-54667339857528845112013-10-09T07:47:21.237-04:002013-10-09T07:47:21.237-04:00I'm not sure what you mean about spoilers for ...I'm not sure what you mean about spoilers for the second novel? You mean talking about what happened in the first novel in the second one? Or do you mean in the blurb?<br /><br />I just released the second book in my series last month, and am really enjoying having two books out! I think it helped that I had a lot of the second book written before the first was published though, so I was mostly just polishing. I'm planning on writing the third one this November (for NaNoWriMo), so hopefully it won't be too hard. Starting from scratch again is a bit nervewracking!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05651744055513494283noreply@blogger.com
