Thanks so much for favingΒ
.:Writing A Sequel:.Writing a sequel
β’ SPLITS: Sometimes the first book you write may be so long you have to split it into two once itβs finished. And there! Boom! Automatic sequel! You have two books now and you didnβt even have to plan anything extra for that other one. Lots of people write super obnoxiously long books because they are afraid to split it or for whatever reason. But when a book gets beyond 100k, it can't possibly be all one story anymore. Find a good comfortable place to split the book, even if it requires some revision to make an ending there and a new beginning. But beginnings and endings of books are the easiest parts, so it should not be hard.

I actually did take a look around at some of the other articles in your gallery; I'm sorta picky about who I'm Watching right now (to keep deviations from flooding in faster than I can look at them, which they're already on the verge of doing), but your stuff is written and presented very well. Should I have need of more tips, I'll definitely be swinging back your way.
