Join my newsletter for “deleted scenes” from my novels.
For example, I originally didn’t have a prologue. Instead, the first two chapters were Nikka at 12 years old. In the first version, chapter one was when the Lilac Plague struck. And then chapter two was roughly three weeks later with the raid. But I realized I could only have one scene with 12-year old Nikka. So I moved that to the prologue and cut chapter two, only including a fraction of the information about the raids as flashbacks. Unfortunately, there were tender moments between Nikka and her mom that had to be cut, along with Nikka’s horrible experience when the raids came to town. Want it? Join my newsletter list.
And… there’s another scene. A BIG ONE…between book 2 and book 3 in this series. No spoilers here, but you. will. want. it! Join the list!
