Plotting

I was at work, on break and working on my book, when my whole plot changed course. I hope for the better.

I had my characters on a bridge surrounded by Zombies.  Was not sure what to do, I had them jump off the bridge.  I loved that idea and had no idea where it came from.  So now I have to replot the next chapter and I am so excited, cause it makes for a better story.  Not much was happening.  I had them at the house, most of the time, now they are really out of their element and I am excited about writing the scene and see what is going to happen next.

Just because you plot out your novel does not mean that you can not change the outline as you go.  It is just a guide line. 

so I am very excited about the next half of the book.  The characters are stronger  and more determined.  Their love is stronger and will do what they have to do to survive. 

I love to plot, but I also love it when something happens that I don't see coming.  Had no idea they were going to jump off the bridge.  Can't wait to see what they do next.

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Work Ethic

What is your work ethic????  It might get that book written sooner. I admit that televison is my distraction from writing.  I can not write in the living room, where the telvision is staring at me.  I know it talks to me.  Maybe your distraction is something dirrerent.  The dishes calling you to wash them or those dust bunnies talkling to you.  Whatever it is we need to stop listening to them. I always plan on writing more than I do.  I came home from work yesterday, and had plans to write, then I ate and started flipping channels and then the time slipped by and I didn't write anything.  I think it all come down to one's work ethic.  Some have one and some don't. I think I am one of them that does not have a strong work ethic.  The fact that I want my book finished, is what motivates me.  I want to be a writer, so I write. http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com/
