The Process Behind MY TETHERED SOUL
by Dorothy Dreyer

Before I even began writing MY TETHERED SOUL, I had a basic idea about what was going to happen. But if you want to know a secret, it’s this: the way I thought the book was going to end actually ended up being the very middle of the book. The story went on from there. Visions I had for the continuation of the series ended up creeping into the second half of the book. And I’m really glad, because I think it gives the book a much more rounded story line.
Other things I had to keep in mind when writing MY TETHERED SOUL was to make sure the character arcs moved forward. I need to make sure that Zadie, most of all, changed and grew in this installment. Sure, she’s faced with new challenges and she’s got a better understanding of what’s happening in her world, but I had to make sure she wasn’t the meek, confused girl she started out as in MY SISTER’S REAPER. So that was something I had to constantly remind myself.
I also had to make sure the story was authentic and engaging enough in a way that fit with the style of the first book. MY SISTER’S REAPER had some spooky moments, so I had to make sure the sequel kept up with that standard.
But in the end, the characters drove the story during my writing. I cared about them and what happened to them. And Zadie and the gang really helped me bring the story to the finish line.
