For
me, I think that a huge difference was there were more details to go
on for characters. The characters became more vivid showing who they
were, which dug deeper into their story. In my first book I was
writing based off my dreams I was having, so the story was there and
it poured from me with ease but when I thought 'how would the story
continue' that is when things changed; the details were in my
imagination rather than what I was seeing when I was dreaming.
Instead of being in a dream I was now creating it from what I could
see to let readers be able to see it more clearly. In book two I
wrote from Baylee's perspective and backtracked to where her story
started. In book one, she was just a twin sister, a footnote in the
story. Now she is our main girl demanding her own identity in a world
she was already confused about. In my first book Garritt knew who he
was, he needed to just learn heritage so you could just jump into
action with him, Baylee has more emotion, more
psychological
issues she needed to work through. Because of these issues I needed
to pay more attention to detail so she could figure out where she
came from.
Every
book is different, the Resistance series builds off each other, to
build you must make more, for this book it was more detail. I needed
to do more story webs, more outlines, I needed each detail carefully
placed from how she got her start to how she had to choose her life
path. Between character difference and details on their traits I
needed to make sure my story details remained the same from locations
to history. I'm not perfect so I'm sure I messed at least one of
those things up and didn't catch it.

Author Bio
I
am a mother of two wonderful little leprechauns. I am a
twenty-seven year old bookworm. I’m a day dreaming, writing stories,
photography taking, little nerd, and PROUD. I have been writing for a
few years now and hoping to influence the next generations with
imagination and hopefully turn them into fans!
I live in Colorado now, where the views
are amazing, there is nothing like this view! I have lived in Florida
growing up (which is where the beginning of Garritt’s story starts) I
have lived in Alabama but nothing compares to Colorado. I do miss the
weather in Florida, I’m not a big fan of the white stuff (snow) in the
winter.
