Love this deep dive. I'm writing a fantasy trilogy... it's been six years so far. Six years of ideating, researching, world building and just last year I finally wrote the first draft of the first book. It's teaching me so much. I did do a full outline, but now for the rewrite have realized some of the major components have to change. Ahhhhhhhh.... Thank you for sharing your process!
P.S. I've just started sharing prequel short stories for the trilogy here on SS, and it's breathing new life into it all to have other people's eyes on this thing I've been simmering on... just sharing in case it sparks something for you!

I'm so excited for you, Kyra!! It' not easy, but it's all so rewarding.
Thank you! Excited for you too!
