Came back from Vegas yesterday. Had a blast! Couldn't stop writing, though. Kept having to pull out my trusty note pad and jot down ideas for my projects. I added plot elements for LURE III, OTHERS, KIT, DECOMPOSER (even though it's done), as well as two new story ideas.
Gonna put everything in the computer tonight and outline stuff out to keep it organized or else everything will get lost in the shuffle and disappear into lost idea land. I can't even begin to tell of the innumerable ideas that I've had--and swore I'd right down "later"--have ended up in lost idea land.
Hmmmmmmm, there's a story in there somewhere.

more writing

Last night I cranked out ten more pages of KIT. Sweet! The broad, chunky outline has now been laid out and I'm gonna put more meat on the bones over the next week. Taking the next few days to do more reading--going away for the weekend.
I'm curious to see how this project works out becuase I'm approaching it in a completely different way. I usually write pretty chronologically, not this time. I'm all over the place. I have the very beginning scenes, the very end scenes, cool trippy scenes that build tension, and the scenes that lead to the climax. I've written Twenty pages worth of that. If you were to read the piece as a whole it would be very disjointed, but I'm really pleased with it. It is my permitted "shitty first draft." :)
Yeeeeah baby!

KIT

Last night I put aside LURE II to start work on a new horror story--the working title is KIT. I got the idea during last night's critique. I'm on fire about it. I'm hoping to crank out a draft within the next thrity days. A tall order, but it's all in my head and I have to get it out.
Last night I cranked out ten pages. Let's see what tonight brings. Thanks, Donna!


The web site has been tweaked and updated. Jeff Vogel is a bitchen artist/ web designer! I'd recommend him to anyone.

Last night I dreamt of Rick Ocasik from the Cars. Why? Who the hell knows. I have one Cars album--wasn't a big fan--yet the human bottle brush was in my dream.
I swear I wasn't on anything.
