I hear you about those pesky plot bunnies! I'm working on the outline for my country music book (Tentatively,
The Mansion You Stole), and now I have an idea for a jazz singer at a casino, a women who runs a wedding service, a cake decorator / baker, a divorcee who has a disabled child in need of horseback therapy... Yeah, I'm in trouble, need to write down the basic ideas for each of these and make them wait it out. This is on top of my YA Sealer Saga and my high fantasy Tales of Ellithica that I've been developing for over a year. Is there a way to neuter the bunnies, or at least put them on pause? I'm swamped!
At least my hands have recovered enough that I can get some work done now. I figure I should get the ideas for all of this done in "idea form" (writing down the premise and any random thoughts), get back to Mansion, and then do my (hopes and prays...) last round of major edits for
Sealer's Promise.
Between that, I still need to read & blog, plus its Christmas this month. Whew! At least I enjoy all of this stuff. I suppose that's what keeps me (somewhat?) sane.
Keep up the good work, everyone. If we go one step at a time, there's no reason we can't reach our goals.
