I recently finished my series, SMUGGLERS IN PARADISE, and have been trying out ideas for a new book. So far I have very clear ideas about the characterization, setting, and genre, but only a vague plan for the story.

Writers plan their stories many different ways and I’m not sure there is a proven ‘right’ way to do it. With this story I’m trying a method called ‘character outlining’ where you basically define your story arc via your main character(s).

I’m not sure of the final name for the story, nor am I sure if it will be a single book or the beginning of a new series. For now, I’m going to give it a temporary name – CONFLICTED.

I hope you enjoy some of the pieces I’ll post here, and as always, I would enjoy whatever engagement you decide to bring (comments, critiques, direct messages, etc.).
