When I wrote the first two books of this series (With Music in Their Hearts and A Flute in the Willows) I knew where I wanted to go with them. The plot just magically (LOL) was there, ready for me to write the books. But...
All along, my mind was blank for a plot with this book three. I pondered, tried to decide how to produce a plot that was different but still tied into the theme of all three books. And then when the time was right--I suppose I could say it like that--the plot became clear:
* A singer who sang to the troops
* A singer who was being accused of being a spy
From there the plot leaped off the page. I knew where and how I would write this story. Of course, there were still some unknowns, but with time, repeated edits, and careful considerations, including turning my back on favorite story-people, I was able to layout this novel with a well-thought-out plan.
On top of all that, thanks to my scheduled plan of writing that I initiated at the first of this year, my writing timeline went very good. I completed the novel successfully, endured (lol, again) the editing, approve the cover, and was able to, at last, see this project come to fruition.
So please forgive me if I give my shoulder a nice pat.
And, if all goes as planned, I should complete one more novel this year with publication in early 2021.
Well done, You faithful writer! (That's me, in case you're wondering.)
