The Coming Month

Well, October is here, and I haven't been posting much of substance for several months. Mostly pictures, little blurbs. Must have been a busy summer.

Well, things are cooling off, activities are moving indoors, and in the past there have been goals I have aspired to finish. November will be another goal riddled month, as I am once again going to participate in National Novel Writing Month(NaNoWriMo). It was a lot of fun the last time I got involved, even if I could never attend any of the local gatherings sponsored by the organization due to the hours I work. I might have a couple of friends this year actually partake as well, which could be fun.

To generate a story, I need an idea. This really isn't a problem, I have quite a few. The decision I must make in the next few weeks is to go with the character and environment I created for the last book, so that I can start a series for publication. Or do I experiment with other ideas that are in my head. I want to experiment some more, and have some concepts in my head that are developed enough to start putting to the page as it were. The existing characters and environment are something I would like to do more, but I have yet to come up with an idea I'd like to run with.

Such problems that plague me, if only these were my biggest worries.

So I do hope my mind is quietly making connections to little bits of story that could lead to a fun tale. It's happened before, it will happen again.

So, there are things I am thinking about, and there are THINGS I am THINKING about.

With any luck, I'll post more soon.
Smile!
