Change up

Busy day. The oldest of my two little sisters graduated college today. So I took the day off and spent it with family. Good times.

Started note taking on an idea I had a while back. Starting to put some form to the concept. Also working on the most current and complete project notes…

Which is being changed up. The world works, I like it and it’s interesting. The story/narrative has to be changed up. My initial idea for the story was a little dry. I couldn’t make the story work in a way I felt was original and exciting. I know this and am willing to fix things. So I’m taking another idea I had, with some characters, and incorporating the story into the world I’ve created. Which is appropriate since the concept for the world was born from this storyline I’ll be incorporating. Gotta role with the punches. I don’t wanna start writing something that is not ready for that stage in the creative writing process. Taking my time to make sure all the ducks are in line is the best practice. Rushing never got anyone anywhere except into a headlong collision.

Also still thinking of posting–for free, EVERYONE loves the word “free”–one of the two novels that I never got an agent to pick up for representation. Still unsure. More to come…
