Some of you have mentioned wanting more Paksworld stuff.\u00a0 “What about X?”\u00a0 “Will Y ever do [mumble-mumble]?”<\/p>\n
The honest answer is, I don’t know.\u00a0\u00a0 There’s definitely more story going on, but there’s also another story that wants to be written…not in Paksworld.\u00a0\u00a0 Like you, I want to know what the entire alphabet of characters will do next, especially the ones whose arcs were not even close to being completed in Crown<\/em>.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I want to write in that world again.\u00a0 But toward the end of this group, I realized that some things would have to change so I could.\u00a0\u00a0 I can no longer pull 16-18 hour days writing, 6 1\/2 day weeks,\u00a0 without a break, for a year.\u00a0\u00a0 Physically, I was wearing out; now I’m building back up.\u00a0\u00a0 Mentally, too, I need time to read other things, experience other things, refill the well.<\/p>\n The questions you’ve asked are good ones, and for a few of them I know (I think I know!) the answers, but the answers are best given in the story itself.\u00a0\u00a0 And this other story keeps shoving me around, so I’m going to have to spend some time trying to write it–I’m not sure it’s more than a powerful idea without much story attached, and I can’t tell without committing some time to it.\u00a0\u00a0 But, “God willin’ and the crick don’t rise,” there will be more stories from Paksworld, some short and some…given my history…are likely to be very long indeed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Some of you have mentioned wanting more Paksworld stuff.\u00a0 “What about X?”\u00a0 “Will Y ever do [mumble-mumble]?”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[107],"class_list":["post-2246","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-the-writing-life","tag-the-writing-life"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2246"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2246"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2246\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2248,"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2246\/revisions\/2248"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2246"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2246"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.paksworld.com\/blog\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2246"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
