The Technical rant book

Rant 11: Sequels, sequels, sequels

I write so much, that in the ranting I made about 'endings', it's very hard NOT to make a stand alone.

For example;

  Me: *Writing stories at once, has one other complete fanfic that needs a sequel* lalalalaa.

 *Later*

Me: *Gets hit with an idea for Shattered Sparks* Oh!

Shattered Sparks is genunely about an what if thing if ViruzCarrier came to a different version of SGA where Ivy is not a bomb and is not the creation of Ultra Magnus, but quite simply; ViruzCarrier creates her because she wasn't even alive in this universe nor was she even born, it also includes where Primus and Unicron have this big fight/battle in their robot modes and ViruzCarrier knows it will happen so he has to warn this other universe that inadventurely triggered this fight in the first place that intervened with his trip to HIS CYBERTRON in "Seeing is Believing".

Here's the short summary:

"ViruzCarrier comes to the universe where Ivy isn't exactly a gigantic robot nor Megatron's right-hand side mate, and the great ancient battle between Primus and Unicron has been revived. Somethings he has to do will Shatter Sparks."

 That is literately the genuine concept= Viruz Carrier to the rescue to warn about Unicron and Primus.

I get so many ideas, and I'm working on stories that plan to be done on time.

 *Shakes fist at the unverse*

I hate you, universe!

Three times (so far) have I come across the brainstorming to Shattered Sparks inbetween 2013 and 2014.

Shattered Sparks was a title that came up when I was thinking a chapter's contents to "This is Crazy, but I'm in the Bayverse!" for the "Three words" chapter.

 I have recently been thinking about making it set in the TFA world; that's a completely different Ivy who is the opposite to her SGA self.  She lies a lot, wears dark clothing, has some tatto's, and goes out late at night unbeknownst to Leroy (To do some stuff with the Decepticons). She does some fishy things but Leroy doesn't  watch the news at all.

So it's like Leroy takes on Ivy's role from Shattered Dreams minus the visions, and Ivy takes on Leroy's role from Shattered Dreams.

Me: I got this and this and this story that needs to have a sequel, but if I do that newer story then people will stop reading all together if I make another book. Maybe  I should make it a short story. 0.o

I write a lot, and when I have these great ideas for stories that span into books and then I get another brilliant idea;. a story may need to be sacrificed for the new idea to be made.  I just hate it when I get these fantastic, saga-book series ideas ontop of another one that's in progress.  The storys you see on my TFASGAwriter account that say 'stand-alone' are very lucky; because no more damage and not anymore wrecking to the fragile storyline.  (To me it is.)
