Why the Sun is Green...

Why a sequel to Blue Moon? Why not?

Well, existential questions aside, I couldn't get Richard, Jo, Sophie and the other characters out of my head. They had lots of clever things they wanted to say and stuff they wanted to do. But I didn't have a plot.

Erin pointed out to me that that hadn't stopped me from starting Blue Moon but you can't always depend on a plot just happening along at the right moment when you need one. I needed to have at least a bit of a long-range plot to give me hope of keeping the story moving in some direction.

So Erin suggested the title, a plot, and did the marvelous little cover sketch. This really is all her fault. ::grin::

So hang loose or hang on tight. It's my aim to do about 1500 words a day from now to early December, though some days will probably be much shorter and a few will be longer. Blue Moon, except for the last chapter, all happened in a single calendar day and all within one city. Green Sun will cover more time and space but I hope I can keep it just as exciting.

Oh, Sophie's cheat to get out of the terms of the bet was all my idea; I intended that from the first. ::grin::
