I'm just going to write it all down and deal with it in the end.<BR/><BR/>I've been tripped up too many times by my tendency to go back and change something. I really think it's a subconscious way to hide from having to deal with a sticky story problem, or the fear of not knowing what comes next. For me, anyway.<BR/><BR/>So full speed ahead. Finish it then see what needs to be fixed. That's my motto.Mark Justicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15554011945292854614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18696447.post-63375716704733447652007-11-07T15:08:00.000-05:002007-11-07T15:08:00.000-05:00Yeah, I have the coolest lady ever.

They BOTH play world of warcraft, read horror novels and listen to heavy metal.<BR/><BR/>I made it to 10k last night, too, by the way. I need to work on my outline a bit, though, because I am almost halfway through my story but only a fifth into the wordcount. Guess I need to get more detailed or weave in another plot.<BR/><BR/>Dead Earth: The Green Dawn is on the Christmas list. I hope it doesn't sell out by then.<BR/><BR/>Catch ya later, Mark.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03155751185209414920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18696447.post-76443963775864497542007-11-07T07:57:00.000-05:002007-11-07T07:57:00.000-05:00Thanks, Bryan.You have a wife who WANTS to play vi...Thanks, Bryan.<BR/><BR/>You have a wife who WANTS to play video games with you?

So far I'm on the mark at just over 8k.<BR/><BR/>I am doing a horror/fantasy this year in a rustic Italian setting. Couldron of Shadows is about a group of soldiers returning from war to discover their town is bogged down in evil!<BR/><BR/>Woohoo!
