![Debut Diaries: Second Book Syndrome and Sequel Writing [CC]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/v8J03n4eYgI/hqdefault.jpg "Debut Diaries: Second Book Syndrome and Sequel Writing [CC]
I finished the first draft of my sequel and thought I would use the opportunity to chat about working on book 2 as a debut author including discussions about what helped me and pushing through second book syndrome.
You can expect to see at least a monthly Debut Diaries video where I plan to dive into all the aspects of what it’s like to be a debut author. If you didn’t know, I have a young adult urban fantasy with sci-fi elements BLOOD LIKE MAGIC coming out from Margaret K. McElderry/S&S in summer 2021.
This series overall is a chance for me to share these experiences with you as I’m going through them. So if you’ve ever wanted an inside look at being a traditionally published debut author. This is your chance! If there are any questions or things you want to see in this series, please comment with them, and I’ll do my best to share.

I decided it was about time to do a little Q&A, chatting about the publishing industry from agent things, to editor things, contracts and more. Author life, including how Im enjoying the experiences, challenges, and more. Writing Advice where I chat about things like tackling pacing and preparing for beta readers, and you guessed it, more. And finally, I answer a couple questions about Blood Like Magic, spoiler free!
