That awkward moment where you set up a super important scene in your story!! intended to put it in and everything!!

...and then you forgot to

(i should take this opportunity to edit some Ark things anyway, seester and I talked about him last night and we came to the conclusion that he should freak out more. or something.)

Remember hella days ago when I used to talk about what I was gonna do with my writans all the time? Well, I have some ideas I'm gonna rattle off and you can listen or not.

Before I was going to stuff a bunch of events and perspectives and wrap it all up in one book. Ceallach goes off and has adventures! Ethelle the Goose Girl meets the Windflower! Niall does some things I guess! AND THEN A BIG BATTLE!!

except I realized that that would be a pretty bad idea for a few reasons:
1. it would be a huge book. I would not be done for a long time!
2. it would be one book. epic fantasy oneshot?? what even.

So I have as of now plans for SIX BOOKS:

One book for every cardinal direction - South (Ceallach), North (spoilers), West (Ethelle), East (Niall); the big conflict introduced in the first book is resolved in the fourth book.
One book about the heavens (celestial level) and neo-heavens (god level, i really need a better name for this); this book will explain the REASON for the big conflict introduced in the first book
One book of various short stories and miscellaneous tales set in the world (this is probably where Rowan and Iris' history will be explained)

This presents the problem of having to find titles for every book, though. THE WORST PART!! all I have right now is "The Tower's Son" for Ceallach's book which is not great.
Rapunzel and Sleeping Beauty doesn't really fit the entire series either. I did come up with "Tabula Rasa" a while ago, but I don't know how much I like that for the whole thing.

Decisions decisions. Do you have thoughts?
