Still Working

I am plotting I promise, the goal is to get my first three books plotted out fully (intersections and all) and then to begin research by July and actual writing by August

will try to keep you updated as i go!!

updates on the New Direction

Okay I am doing a lot more reading then writing at this point (in my defense Ward decided to come out with Rhev right while I was trying to work :D)

However, I am finding out that I am a plotter who wants to be a pantser. Yes I know this is the opposite way of things but hey I like to be different *shrug*

I am currently going through the book Novelist's Bootcamp by Todd Stone, and truthfully I like it. It's got sound advice and encouragement and is helping me confront my inner-pansy waist :D and come to terms with the fact that I have been putting tremendous amounts of pressure on myself (and in turn dooming myself to failure with unrealistic expectations, yeah pretty par for the course with my personality as well) soo I am backing off a tad, and coming at this from a new angle

Hopefully we (myself and you wonderful invisible people) will soon see some outlines coming out -- as soon as I figure out how to write an outline -- I might copy the WARDen on this one :D

if I am felling really ambitious I may even outline the whole dang series ;)
