I've been working on Another World, which is a short story I've been trying to put together for a while now. I keep wondering whether I should save it and work on it during NaNoWriMo this year or start to plunk away at it. lol. Because I have another story that I thought about working on, but I'm not super excited about it. So... that's what I'm worried about. LOL. If I'm wishy washy about it now, odds are that I'm going to be the same come November. And that would seriously suck if I bombed another year of NaNoWriMo!! I'd be very upset.
So there is a very high chance that I'll work on Another World this November. I'll make sure to post here when I have information about it up on Libraria!
I decided to take a lesson from Berm (AKA Amanda) and get a nice cork board, memo notes, & push pins to set up my outline. I always thought that was very interesting whenever I saw it hanging up on her wall. I bought a HUGE cork board at work for $10, so I have lots of space to put up lots of scenes! Don't get me wrong, I love me some Liquid Story Binder XE, but it's nice to have something physical like that too to work with when I'm planning a story.
I discovered that the only way for me to be productive when writing is to plan out a bunch of scenes I would like to see in the novel & then figure out the order of them & boom! Novel outline. That was the only way I got to 50k words in 2008. I can admit to it, I am so ADD when it comes to writing & am so picky about what I put down, that I get frustrated with myself & stop writing! So I have to babysit myself to get anything done. But hey, at least I know how to get it done now!
Time to plot out that novel...

Can wait to read your work Smam.
ReplyDeleteYou'll be the first to sweetie! :D hehe <3
ReplyDeleteWhoa. Why did I not know about this writing software? I've been using Yarny but it doesn't have much in the way of formatting or adding stuff... but I do like that it's all auto-backup in the cloud so nothing gets lost.
ReplyDeleteARGH DECISIONS!
It has auto backups too. :] hehe. LSBXE is amazing. Go to youtube & you'll find some tutorials on it! It's pretty much fabulous. lmao.
