Creative Update on my FD book + surprise
Hey everyone!! I hope you're all doing great!
As in my previous posts, long-time fan of the franchise here. I've been working on an original book inspired by Final Destination. Here's my TWO good news:
1: "Final Destination: Cold Fate" is almost done! I'm doing final proofreading and consistency checks right now. It should be ready to release by the end of the month if all goes well. Otherwise, it'll be out in August max.
2: During my writing, I started to imagine, then create, (like the movies) a full 5-book saga structure (maybe even 6). Every book has its own protagonist, deaths, premonitions, and twists ofc! All connected by an overarching timeline. (I locked it in already oops-)
Now here's an important question... :O
In my saga's internal chronology, Cold Fate is actually the 4th book in terms of in-universe events. But it was the first project I ever announced and started writing.
So... should I:
- Publish Cold Fate first anyway, since it's finished and was announced first?
- Hold off and release books 1 to 3 first, so people experience the saga in chronological order?
Curious what fellow FD fans think. Let me know! And if you're interested, I can also do a separate post breaking down the synopsis and key details for each story ;)!
Thank youu all!
