I spent the time between turning in Claimed by the Wolf and revising same setting up a lot of work that I can knock out quickly. I wrote synopsis after synopsis, I inventoried story files for ready-to-go ideas, I got proposals together, and I worked on some novellas. I also thought through how to rewrite a book I love and want to take another run at, doing many things differently.
All of which means I’ve been setting them up and now I’m knocking them down. There are many projects I’m excited about and looking forward to finishing.
I’m also getting outside to enjoy the weather; we may do some more geocaching today. And I’m planning meals ahead so things can be thrown together quickly. Knock ’em down mode requires physical activity and solid nutrition to keep the writer in word-fighting form.
That’s a really smart idea. I haven’t gotten quite organized enough to set things up yet, but I plan to now that the Dead World series has finally reached a close.
I was actually surprised at how much inventory I had once I put it all together. I even found a way to connect 3 separate ideas for a series/anthology. I haven’t finished anything since the last book but I have 3 things 2-3 days from done and more off to a solid start. I’ll be shoveling a lot out the door over the last half of this year!
Great idea, Charli. Good luck with all your projects!
Thanks, NJ! It’s good to be organized. *g*
Good luck. I just finished Animal Attraction, awesome book. 🙂
Woot! I think that’s my favorite of my SMP books. So glad you enjoyed it!
