Jim asks:
A little while back I dove into a sequel featuring my protagonist about fifteen years down the road. It was a big time jump, one I was ready for in the character, but so much more would have occurred, and so much left undone that it was the wrong book. I realized this when I was 95,000 words in. I wrote a whole novel to figure out it was the wrong one.
Has this ever happened to you? How does a writer rectify it?
