A few months ago I published my new science fiction novel titled The IWS QavWan. When writing this novel I took a different approach. I wrote all of the action scenes first then wrote the dialog second that tied everything together. This was my first novel to be started but my second to be finished and I really didn’t know how to write effectively. That being said this method did work for this story. The IWS QavWan novel has many more characters and parallel plot lines than my first novel World in a Bottle. When I review World in a Bottle it feels rushed to me. The editing was rushed and it shows. Writing the IWS QavWan spanned a few years. I completed it then completely rewrote all of the characters and some of the plot. Then I did it again. I wanted it to be as good as I knew it could be. When I wrote World in a Bottle I was focused on telling a good story with plot concepts that were 100% original. It is a good story but in my eagerness to get it published the editing was not as good as it should have been. I tried not make that same mistake with QavWan. I have been told by friends and family that read both books that the QavWan is a better book even though it is a space battle story that has been done many times. I do like to think I put some original twists into the battles but at the end of the day the plot is not as original as World in a Bottle. That being said I believe the QavWan novel is a better read than most sci fi novels I have read in the past. It is my hope that you the reader will obtain a copy and let me know if I’m right.
