What to write next?

Filed under: Writing — Tags: , , — PD Martin @ 2:07 pm

It seems impossible to think that book 5, Kiss of Death, is done…let alone that it’s the middle of November! How did that happen?

Although I’ve got lots of projects on the go (updating my website, a new interactive e-book (more on that later) and a book trailer for Kiss of Death) I do find myself thinking more and more about the next book. Soon it’ll be time to start researching and writing.

To Sophie, or not to Sophie? That is the question. I’ve got five ideas kicking around taking up valuable space in both my conscious and subconscious. Soon I need to focus on one. But which one?

Book 6 in the Sophie series? A new kick-ass female character with more action and intrigue? A noir-style series featuring Benson from Fan Mail – remember him? Stories from the world of undercover cops/agents? Or another genre entirely? Mmm…..

Simmer, simmer, clunk, clunk (they’re the sound effects currently emanating from my brain). But soon it will be time to turn up the heat and bring something to the boil; and hopefully there’ll be little to no clunking during the writing process!

  1. I am reading Fan Mail and just thought i would have a break and check my emails and there was yours. I am really enjoying it. Although i haven’t finished Fan Mail, if you haven’t already killed him off lets have more on Justin Reed.

    I vote for your number two thought a kiss-ass female character.

    I am really enjoying your books and have been reading them one after another, roll on Feb when your next one is out here in England.
