Book 2 needs major work. Cutting a major character, adding new ones, adjusting plotlines and lore are resulting in an overhaul.

Reinvent book 2
New friends, allies, and conflicts
Story cohesion

Monica: I've realized that I need to cut a character out of book 2 and divide his functions among others, or else the plot just won't work. This will delay the draft longer.

Plot needs overhaul
Fix character dynamics
Book 2 is delayed

Getting ghosted by agents and publishers is almost as awful as getting form rejections. At this point, after all the work that's gone into this story and the query package sent to agents, all I can do is wait, hope, and pray that someone will save me from this endless cycle of silence.

Someone publish me
My story dies in silence
Please stop killing me

Amy here! Are ghosts real? I'm a vampire, but I seem to have been left out of the loop on this one.

So wait, ghosts are real?
How many people knew this?
Let the vampire know

Amy here! I'm alone for Christmas, but it doesn't have to be this way. It's cold, and I'm pyrokinetic, so I can be your personal heater!

Warmer in winter
Get a vampire for Christmas
Personal furnace

Amy here! Ever since Dracula kidnapped my parents, I'm home alone, just like Kevin McCallister on Christmas Eve. I may not be torturing burglars, but I did fend off vampires and werewolves last month.

Kevin's Home Alone
Just like me on Christmas Eve
Torturing burglars

Hey Monica, I hear you listening to sad music as you skip to writing the ending scenes of book 2. You're still writing me a happy ending, right? ...Right?

I can only hope
For my own happy ending
Please write one for me

Free speech means the government cannot censor anyone from expressing themselves. It doesn't protect anyone from the consequences of spreading lies and threatening people with violence, but that's what fascist Republicans say it does while they censor anyone they disagree with.

This is not free speech
You should face consequences
For harming people

It's me, Amy, and the second book Monica is writing about me is utterly bonkers. I, a vampire, need to deal with a bunch of ghosts, a ninja, and the governor of Florida.

Ghosts and a ninja
Governor of Florida
Second book is weird
