Okay - so I've had to adjust the whole 90 days idea. I thought I could pull it off. Can't. Kids, Husband, dogs, new kitty, vacations and now summer....no time to write. So I am counting only the days I work on the novel. At this point I am 11 days in. Yes, that's it. But they are a good, hard, gut wrenching eleven days. I am pouring myself into this project. I will either have a novel written by this method, or a serious psychology bill.
Today I worked on the 2 major, or biggest conflicts my main character has.
- Seit vs. Self (she does not care about her ancestors or lineage)
- Seit vs. World (if she chooses to bring her dead parents back, the end of the world will ensue)
I've never written a book this way. Before I even have a first chapter, I have my middle and end. It's strange. And I must fight the urge to write, and keep writing. But I am making myself follow this book. (even if I hate it right now)
We have not gotten to the outline part yet, which is throwing me for another loop. I am trying to be like water, and go with the flow. But you know writers....we have OUR way of doing things. Deep breath.
Until tomorrow....when I hope I get to start on the beginning.
Write~On
