Today's EarWorm: "End of Me" by Ashes Remain
Today's Date: 8/15/2016
So I had to sit down and really think about what I wanted to write for today's blog.
I drew a blank.
Then I remembered that I had started a list of ideas for future blogs just in case I don't have an idea ready for the next blog. And the first subject on that list? "Preparing for NaNo after Camp". Thus this post was born!
For all of those who follow my twitter (@SLStrailo), you know that I've been working on a series called Murder and Love/Lust (yeah, I still don't know if it's going to end up being love or lust). It's a short piece series set pre-books. Said books really don't have a plot as of yet, but I am working on that.
I have characters. That's part of the harder part of the battle for me when it comes to writing.
But now that it's been a couple of weeks since the end of July's Camp National Novel Writing Month, with me sliding in under the deadline like usual, I'm turning my eye to November and what is going on there.
To be truthful...I have no idea. Absolutely none. Whatever.
No...wait...I have some ideas. But I'm not sure what is going to happen, so we'll have to see.
Let's go over what I have in options.
Thread the Needle
This was actually started as my April 2016 Camp, I think, but it came to a stop because I started working on others and need to figure out just what I'm going to do with it since things are a lot different then our world.
Which is kind of interesting since I'm going to have a lot of people crawling up my ass for messing around with history. But hey, that's the beauty of writing fiction.
The Retail Worker Turned Supernatural Hunter
Again, if you follow my twitter, you've seen me complain about a new series. Originally it was going to be with a homicidal poltergeist, but then I started to get bits for a werewolf and shared those bits.
From there, I changed the plan because I was getting that instead of homicidal poltergeist.
Fun times.
Crimson Shadows Rewrite
Actually I've been meaning to get back to this story but it's always been kind of on the backburner. I just need to pull out the original story and made some more notes about what I want to do with it if I do go with this one.
I know what I want to get to, and have the first three books mostly thought out, but seriously? It's driving me up a wall.
Superhero Series
I'm actually not sure where I'm going to be on book 1 when it comes time but it is on that list to finish it off before working on another story. So we're going to see where I go in the long run.
When My Eyes Close
I started this story last year, but I haven't picked it up yet, but I've been doing a lot of things lately. So it kind of fell off to the wayside while I did some rather...interesting research. I have a lot on my plate but now I have the research done and I know where I'm going (mostly) with this story. It's just going to take a bit of time to do this. Fun times.
Anyways, that's my options and thoughts. So we're going to see what I need to do for the NaNo. I have a couple of months and some time to think about what I'm going to do, much less plan for it. So here's hoping that I get SOMETHING done yes? I can hope. I really can.
Can you hear all of the sighing going on over here? I swear that if I sigh any more someone is going to pop up and ask if I'm yearning for some long lost love.
Or vampires.
Yeah, like I haven't heard that before. >>
Anyways, I'll keep you up to date on what I'm doing in regards to this. Keep an eye on the countdown in the bar next to this post and please feel free to comment. :D
And if you have any ideas for what I should write on these blogs, please, leave a comment with a suggestion!
I tend to answer.
Thank you for your time!
