Crux

As I’m finishing up edits of Annie Book 2 there’s the usual low-level panic of not having written down all she did with Crow Boy that summer, the feeling of sand slipping away into the sea. What’s next? I remember when I was at this crux with Annie Book 1 a few years ago. The book was not even published so of course not yet in the hands of readers, and you said it was time to start a new book.
