The Agents Of :: Volume II

(This is a photo of my writing desk, which I got from Serendipity in exchange for favors that shall not be named.)

I'm currently developing the sequel to The Axeboy's Blues. I'm very much still in the development phase, and am creating and detailing the lives of the newer characters, most notably the antagonists.

Something from my notes, about the villains of the novel:

"If one of them dies, I want the reader to cry.”

I want the villains to be so very real, and for the reader to get attached to them.

Since The Agents Of are established in Volume I, the plot of the second book is going to be a lot more layered. I'm having a ton of fun developing it, creating tons of history, half of which probably won't even end up in the novel.

The other aspect I've worked a lot on is really delving into the Agents - both into their pasts and into who they are as people.

More updates soon!
