Accidentally search Filian with an extra L (Fillian) and you get this xD

I feel like i've fallen into a similar trap with my latest work. My plan for the novel i'm working on as well as the next one are all to be within the same universe. "A.M.A" is already out, the next novel "Cho" which is being worked on atm is a distant sequel and the final one "Mary" is going to be a prequel. I am also interested in an anthology (I think thats the word for it) for the entire timeline of the series, stretching from the alternative history that formed the world all the way thousands of years into the future of it, which is probably why i'm getting myself so bogged down with lore and stuff. It's fun though, even if its probably the most ineffecient way of doing things.

I don't know if this has ever happened to other writers, I imagine it must have at least 1 other time but when I was younger I didnt exactly know how to create a story, I somehow knew how to build a universe but not a story. I remember writing pages after pages of lore, timelines, entire civilisations but i couldnt for the life of me actually write a story to do anything with it. Guess that was the consequence of reading too many wikis instead of stories :P

I dont know if this is how most authors do this, but basically the way I write stories is to write out scenes in a kind of random order on paper and then peice them together like a puzzle in word when I feel i've gotten them all sorted Sometimes they really fit together othertimes not so much, the A.M.A story went through I think about 5 drafts before I felt comfortable with the final project (and even then I was nervous as hell since it was my first release)

Ok so for the first time in a while I'm actually making decent progress on my next story. The story is titled "Cho" and is a distant sequel to "A.M.A" following Cho, a character born in the end of "A.M.A". When exactly it'll be out I havent a clue yet, I have a general idea of how I want the plot to go but much like A.M.A I tend to rewrite large portions of it, sort of like beta testing.

I know it wasnt exactly "successful" but to me it proves I'm capable of at least doing it. If I can breach that many as a completely unknown author on my first novel then I know I can do even better with the next. To all that gave my book a chance, thank you.

My novel has reached over 100 readers! I never really thought such a thing could happen. I dont know if this is a complete fluke or the beginning of something great, but after I move I'm going to be spending the majority of my spare time to this
