Current Progress Of My Fantasy Trilogy

So once again I’ve discovered being a perfectionist is more of a curse than a blessing. I did have book one completed but I wasn’t really happy with the last 9 chapters of the book even though other people said they were okay and I tried to ignore my doubts but I couldn’t. So I went back to the drawing board and have been working on trying to write a new ending to the book that I find more exciting and interesting. The trouble is I keep getting side tracked writing book two of the now planned trilogy which I’m really enjoying because I have spent so much time working on the imaginary world and characters that it feels like they’ve almost taken on a life of their own.

At the moment I’m pleased with how book two is progressing but it makes getting the ending right to book one even more crucial. Unfortunately this means it is also taking me a long time to get book one finished but I’d prefer to spend the extra time on it and try to make it as good as I can. I guess at the end of the day I’d like the finished book to be something that throws me into an imaginary world full of excitement and conjures up amazing images in my mind when I read it.
