Now that NaNo is over, I've got some decisions to make. Now what?
Now what, indeed! I think I have the basics for a good novel in my fantasy anyway, and am working on developing that. I've pulled out my bubble board and have gotten the key events that must take place down; now it's a matter of breaking each section into scenes and really mapping it out (I know some will call it an outline, but I know I'll jinx myself in doing that because I hate outlines, plus, I'm a very visual person. So it's a map.)
Hopefully, I'll have it figured out by the end of the month, and I'll be able to start writing again on it! I've also got a couple other WIPs to work on, so I can readily bounce around between them as my mind wanders from a NASCAR romance to the fantasy, to an East Texas cattle ranch to my cross-country mystery.
But I like to go from one project to another on a whim, as ideas come to me. So... maybe I'm a little ADD. But it works for me.
Let the words flow like a fast-running river, and here's to the beginning of a great holiday season!
