Islandfall: Awakening, the first of 5 in the Islandfall Saga, is kicking my ass. I'm absolutely overwhelmed with character, plot, and mythology details!
I've written about 3/4 chapters into the book, and I can't seem to connect all the dots. The mythology is comprehensive and accurately explains the state of the world, and the characters have great backstories and motives. Why is it so exhausting to put to paper (metaphorically). I have to mentally prepair myself for the stress of [re]dissecting my plot and whitling away at the flow of events.
My first book only explains about 1/5 of the lore in the world, and leaves more questions and answers. I don't what why it is so overwhelming, but I will any advice I can get!
