Hi, Ari.
ETA: Debating doing a spreadsheet for Suns and Stars so far. I also have to decide if I want to include the act goals in the Act colum or give it its own.
Damn I really want to use the spreadsheet method now. I figured out for Suns and Stars that in the first column will be acts - with a description of what happens (plot point-wise), the second column chapter number, third chapter, POV, fourth column, summary of the main plot in real time, and the rest the subplots in real time.
Dinner time.

Anyone alive?
I'm here.
Spreadsheet or writing?
Also, in excel how do you get more then one row to connect with a cell? If that makes sense?

I can't decide what to work on. I want to try out the spreadsheet method you see, but I also want to write. So... my choices:
1. Continue writing Suns and Stars
2. Do a spreadsheet outline of Suns and Stars so far
3. Do a spreadsheet outline for Underdog - my latest lovely SNI.
Do you see my problem?

Thanks.
One of my DVDs seems to have its menu options disappearing, but I can still click them. I just played it on here.

The weird thing is, I've noticed wrock is quite good to write to (maybe because it's based on a series?), but I'm still not in the vibe, despite having MoM's album Magic is Might on repeat right now. So I'm wondering if it's pressure, the scene or even Underdog taking over my brain. Or all three. D:
As in tell the Underdog thing to shut the hell up so you can be focused on Suns and Stars. Kind of like how as much as I want to plot my Nutcracker novel, I'm forcing it to go away until Weeping is done.
If I figure how to make SNIs go away, I'll tell you. If you figure it out, you tell me. Deal?
I don't make them go away. I tell them to shut the fuck up. It's my reward system, really. I can touch something else when I finish what I'm on. That's how I finished the last 5 chapters of Breathtaken last year. I told myself I couldn't start on Weeping until it was complete, and I really wanted to get started on that.
At the moment, I just want to have at least 30K when I go away, and to be able to start from a new chapter when I go away.
I'm debating to, if it comes to it, whether to download an app (that I bought but haven't used) onto my iPod that I can write with or take a break and just take notes in my notebook when I go away. If I was near the end, I'd definitely download the app, but alas I am not.
