The Traveler Trilogy

Everything is wrapped up for the Traveler Trilogy. eBooks, paperbacks, hardcovers, draft2digital, and I just hit publish on the audiobooks. I’m not sure how the audiobooks will do, but I’ll give it a try. I listened to a few chapters, and I could listen to them in the car, though I’m not really an audiobook consumer. Now, I can wrap up that trilogy and move on to book 5.

The Abyss

I still have more planning and ideas I want to weave into Nathanael (book 5 of the Abyss series). Then, I’m going to dive right into the rough draft. For this story, I’m going to use a deep point of view in the first person. I’m already planning to use Sylvia Wright as the point of view character. I’ve done a few characters in the first person already. The first was Cassandra, then the fourth book was Justina. For those two stories, the protagonist character in the book was in first person, and everyone else was in the third person. This time, I’m going to try my hand at keeping the viewpoint on Sylvia at all times. If she doesn’t see it, then the reader doesn’t see it. It’s a little tricky to write from that point of view because if the reader needs to know something, I have to bring it to Sylvia. It’s also interesting because I won’t have any fighter pilot scenes, but I can still have battles that are going on in the background, or Sylvia is caught in the middle of a battle (I haven’t written anything yet, so there are no spoilers).

The reason I chose Sylvia is due to the core of the story itself. This story is about Nathanael, who is in the Tome under Revelations 4. According to the Tome, he has no father, and he has a birth defect, but I left the Tome really vague so I can reveal the kid when the time is right. Of course, as I already revealed in earlier books, every mother that is familiar with the Tome wants to name her kid Nathanael so they are famous, etc. So that will play into the story.

It’s going to be a fun story.
