taharielOne of the things I really love Myv for is when she'll sit down with me to discuss a plotline, make some great suggestions, and generally play Devil's Advocate until I've somehow ended up with a stonking plot and only need to work on the details. We have a seriously good creative connection when it comes to stuff like that - she gets what I want to go for, and helps me get there.
So today, after a while of floundering around going 'I have no idea what to do! Every idea I have is a wash/rinse/repeat of the first book! Oh my God I suck!', I finally am actually working up a very general plot chart type thing for the second book in my as-yet-unnamed series :)
Tentative title (at least until I think of something else): The Blood Rose. I think it might be a little overdramatic though, what do you think? I like the three-word format, the+adjective+noun, to follow on from The Night Tower, but I'd like some opinions, if you could.
(ETA: Having just done an Amazon search on 'The Blood Rose', I can also say that the two words 'blood' and 'rose' are in so many book titles you wouldn't believe, so it's going to have to be something else. I want it to stand out in a search, not be hidden so anyone trying to buy it can't find it.)
(ETA 2: What do you think of 'The Rose Vault' or 'The Rose Vaults'? I like to have a title in my head when I write something, you see, so I'm thinking about it now.)
So basically I'm happy, anyway. I wanted to have some idea of where I'm going with the next one before I finished the first one, so I could point the right way. I'm pretty happy with the ideas. They just need thinking on.
