Questions from Growing Writers, #1: How do you write character arcs in a series?

After a LONG break from making YouTube videos and blog posts about writing, I'm back--and I'm starting by answering questions submitted to me by growing writers, aspiring writers, and/or my writing students.

I have several questions queued up to tackle, and my aim is to do 1-2 per month until I've gotten through them all! I'll be answering each question in both video and blog format, so you can use whichever works better for you.

This first question came to me from a young lady who's working hard to grow as a writer... and (like the other questions I'll feature in future posts in this series), she agreed to let me answer her question publicly in case there are any other growing writers out there with the same question!

There's a full blog post (with embedded video), or if you want ONLY the video, you can watch it directly on YouTube! The links to both my blog and my YouTube channel are in my bio.

It was my privilege to answer her question, and I hope this blog post and video are helpful!

I built my first real fiction readership on Wattpad back in 2016-2017 with a romcom/mystery that went viral. Man, those were the days! I *loved* interacting with readers, and I tried to respond to every. single. comment. I eventually left Wattpad, but I missed interacting with my readers!

Fast forward to 2021. I was thrilled to learn Amazon was starting Kindle Vella, and was in Vella from launch until it closed a few months ago. Not as interactive as Wattpad, but it was fun! I'm grateful for all my readers there.

What you may NOT know is that long before Vella was announced, I'd started work on my OWN platform, with a dream to have an interactive readership community *I* ran, so it would never be subject to whims of a major corporation.

PIRATECAT PUBLISHING IS THAT PLACE.

It took me a couple years to nail down how to pull off the vision, and several more to actually do it, but it launched in 2022, and is still growing!

So what is PirateCat Publishing? I'm so glad you asked!
It's a subscribers-only portal where you can read ALL of my young-adult fiction (including exclusives!), plus some of indie author M.J. Padgett's YA fiction... and EVERYTHING is clean (PG-13 or less, just-kisses romance, no profanity)!

Think of it like my own version of Patreon... or a mini-version of KU with just mine and MJ's stories... or an online community where you can chat directly with authors, leave comments, and meet other readers... or all of the above!

Find out more in today's blog: https://www.piratecatpublishing.com/post/what-features-does-piratecat-publishing-offer

You can also follow @piratecatpublishing for updates on what's available and coming! (Or go directly to http://piratecatpublishing.com/join for more info on subscriptions. They're only $5!)

If you've enjoyed my YA stories, would like to try them, or just want to support my writing, I'd LOVE to have you as a PirateCat subscriber! <3

Every subscription helps keep me up and running... I mean, writing. ;)

I hope to see you there! <3

Did you know that Legends of Arameth was not only my very first fantasy trilogy, but it's also my heart series? Book 1 of The Lex Chronicles took me over a decade to write, and I poured so much of heart and soul into this book, I said when I finished that I would probably never write another fantasy world! (Thankfully, I was wrong about that... just VERY, very tired! Lol)

It's been almost 7 years since Book 1 of this series published, and it's STILL finding new readers and getting picked up for new opportunities. (The latest is that it's being stocked in a local indie bookstore here in town!)

I always said I would eventually write more books in this series... and I plan to! But for now, the complete trilogy is out there, plus some short stories... and for the rest of the ideas I had for this story world, well, I guess we'll see what the future holds! ;)

If you haven't checked out The Lex Chronicles yet, they're available in e-book, paperback, and audiobook! You can find all the links to purchase on the retail platform of your choice here: http://ccrawfordwriting.com/books

Today is National "Inspire Your Heart with Art" Day -- a day dedicated to pondering how art affects our hearts.

There's a lot that could be said about this topic, but perhaps the most meaningful to me lately has been the corner display in this photo.

This is my writing corner/office area. It's often hard to find inspiration or motivation to write or to work on something mentally challenging after a full day of homeschooling and parenting, BUT... When I sit down at this corner with my kids' artwork, photos, and inspirational quotes/reminders all over the walls, it always lifts my mood. Sometimes, that's all I need to recenter and get my brain going. (Sometimes. Other times, it also requires large amounts of coffee. 😅 But the photos and artwork always do help.)

In honor of National Peanut Butter Day (🥜), here's a nod to my favorite peanut-butter-obsessed character: Jack, from M.J. Padgett's The Immortal Grimm Brothers' Guide to Sociopathic Princesses series.

This character is ALWAYS eating peanut butter! Lol

If you haven't read this 7-book series yet, check it out. It's a super creative twist on fairy-tale retellings, with lots of surprises thrown in. This entire series is a wild ride, and packed with adventure, magic, humor, fairy-tale lore, wolf shifters, found family, sweet moments, and love that would literally endure lifetimes to reach the happy ending. 💖

Also... it has new covers, and they're FABULOUS! (see screenshot)

Look them up on Amazon and give them a try! 🎉

By the way, MJ writes clean romance in LOTS of different genres, both YA and adult. Check her out at @m.j.padgett_romance !

It's finally DONE! 😭🥳🎉

I just typed "The End" on Season 1 of Aubrey Lance, S.S. (Supernatural Sleuth). This draft is finally completed!

The ending sequence took a lot more time and careful development than I'd originally anticipated, but I'm happy with how it turned out!

My official start date on writing this manuscript: March 23, 2024.
Official completion date: just before midnight on January 18, 2025.

My final word count on this project: 105,632. Whew! It's more than I originally planned (about 15k more) but it's what the story needed.

Nearly a year of work, and over 100,000 words... and it feels so good to say it's completed!

***
So what happens now? It's off to my Alpha readers, for their feedback. After that, edits. While those stages are being done, I'll also be finalizing the story's release schedule and working on some companion posts to go up on social media with the episodes as they release.

How long will it be before this story is rolling out to you in regular (free!) episodes on my site? I can't say for sure yet, but the hard part is done! 🙌 Stay tuned... I'll be sharing updates as I have them, as this story moves through the stages toward publication.

So, I was GOING to make a post saying that, after a busy but wonderful weekend of time with family & friends & church community plus some housecleaning (including a complete reorganization of my desk and work area--it's SO nice to have an uncluttered workspace again!) and a morning doing work and tackling necessary to-dos... that I am FINALLY sitting down at my desk again to tackle those FINAL FIVE CHAPTERS I have left to write of my YA fantasy-mystery!

I was going to make that post... but...

Then I took this picture and it looks like light beams from my desk lights are attacking my head, so... here's hoping those are the visual representation of intense focus and creative thoughts coming in as brain beams because I'm gonna need them.

I have 3 hours open for writing (unless I'm needed for something) and five chapters left on the outline--Can I do it? Who even knows!? But HERE WE GO! 🙏👍🎉

I have FIVE chapters left to write of my book, and then it's finally done!

I've been working on this YA fantasy-mystery for MONTHS, but with so much going on in my personal and family life, writing time has been slim until lately.

I'm now up to 80,619 words on this manuscript... with only five chapters left in my outline. Now, that's assuming I didn't underestimate the content in the outline... I often think I can fit more into one chapter than I can... but FIVE! Even if it turns out to be a bit more than that, "The End" is finally right there within reach... and I'm even on pace for my goal word count of 85-90K.

This book is FINALLY almost done. <3 🎉

For any readers who follow my stories on Kindle Vella, I just wanted to let you know that Amazon has made the decision to end Vella as of February 2025. (You can find details here: https://www.amazon.com/kindle-vella/a/faq )

According to Amazon, any stories you have already unlocked using tokens by that date will remain in your Kindle app library to read. So if you're wanting to purchase any of my existing Vella episodes, be sure to do it before then!

Due to Vella closing up shop, I do not plan to post anymore new episodes on Vella.

HOWEVER...

If you're a reader following my Fate Rising (Leyward Stones, Season 2) or Torn Fate: Guardians of Miralore stories on Vella--which are not yet completed--I WILL be finishing those serials... just not on Vella.

The existing episodes of both of those stories are already up and available to read inside my private reader platform (where I've been posting them for my members on the same schedule I was posting on Vella). So when I resume posting episodes once I'm off hiatus, all my new episodes will be going there. (You can find out more about my publishing portal at http://piratecatpublishing.com ! There are lots of other stories in there already as well.)

You can also subscribe to my email list (http://ccrawfordwriting.com/subscribe) if you haven't already to get the latest on what I'm publishing and when! (Hint: I have a new, FREE serial coming up soon that will be posted exclusively to my ccrawfordwriting.com/blog !)

I am grateful for my Vella readers, and for the wonderful experience I had meeting you--and other Vella authors! If you found me on Vella, I hope you'll consider joining me in the PirateCat Publishing portal and on my newsletter and blog so I can keep sharing my stories with you! <3

Nadia is still figuring out the bounds of her family's magic and what the whole situation really means... and whether they might be in more danger than she realized.

Episode 20 of Torn Fate is now live on Kindle Vella! Read it (or catch up on past episodes) at the link in my bio!

To my readers:

Fate Rising and Torn Fate will both be taking a brief posting hiatus on Kindle Vella, starting this week/next week.

My reasons for this break are many, but the primary reasons boil down to this:

Life is super hectic right now and I *need* to prioritize my family and my health, so for the time being I need to scale back on my writing load.

I currently have THREE open stories (these two, plus another WIP that's very important to me), and as much as I love ALL these stories (and my readers!), with the current pace of my life, it's just too much for me to juggle right now and still do it all well and to the quality I want to, and that my readers expect and deserve.

Because of that, I've made the difficult decision to pause my Vella stories, to give myself some breathing room and more flexibility.

I will still be writing, though! I'll be using this time to finish up my other WIP (because having three open projects is too many).

So...

--Fate Rising is going on hiatus as of today. That means there will NOT be a new episode tomorrow (I'm sorry!). I did leave an Author Note on last Tuesday's episode to explain more about why I'm taking this break.

--Torn Fate has ONE more episode already scheduled, which goes up Thursday (9/26), and then will be going on hiatus after that.

I do not yet have an exact date that either of these stories will resume their regular posting schedules on Kindle Vella, but I can promise you I'm not abandoning them! I WILL be returning to them and finishing them out. (I won't just leave you hanging!)

I may announce a modified posting schedule once I have more of an idea of when I will be resuming each of them.

And I'll definitely be announcing more about my WIP once I get it finished! That one is NOT going on Vella... it will be going directly onto my blog/website as a FREE serial. More about that when the time comes! :)

Thank you all so much for your understanding, and for all the support and love you give to my writing! I have such amazing readers, and I'm so grateful for all of you! <3
