Though that doesn't spend all the time thinking about it, especially when I'm trying to figure out a plot hole or something. (One of the reasons I don't mind commuting 30 minutes to work a day). Awesome on the tow WIPs! Are they continuations of Miss Mabel?<br /><br />I think last November, I had an entire series on how I prewrite. I like to have an idea of main characters and their backgrounds and settings. Plus, I need a detailed outline. I've found through experience that if I don't know where I'm going, I never get there. I have multiple unfinished novels because of that. <br /><br />For this year's NaNo, it's going to be completely different because the book is going to be character driven rather than plot driven. It's also set in the real world, so the research is less 'creative' and more 'factual.' It'll be interesting to see how it turns out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17527989806224086214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5527248326652000073.post-27223077395773524282014-07-06T11:56:39.603-07:002014-07-06T11:56:39.603-07:00I'm so impressed every time I stop by your blo...I'm so impressed every time I stop by your blog how many WIP's you have going. How many hours a day do you work on writing on an average? I have two first drafts going right now (it's my first time ever doing two at once) and then one WIP that's in and out of the editors that I work on here and there. <br /><br />Also, what do you do for pre-writing? I did NaNo last year and doubt I'll do it this year as I shoot for about 3-5k wpd on my own (well, when I'm writing first drafts) but I am curious about how you pre write to prepare for it.KChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03924028116296474975noreply@blogger.com
