Once again the ideas have began to infect my thoughts and I find myself needing to write. I plan on picking up where I left off on at least one of the stories I started here and hopefully adding a few others. Right now I really need to find that one person who can feed the creative fire inside me and allow me to bounce ideas off of them. Then again, I always need to find that someone who seems to not exist.
Right now I am working on differing versions of Chapter 8 of the tale of Nate and Kayla and it is driving me a little crazy. I haven't gotten overly far with either yet but I know it is a going to impact the rest of the story.
To make matters worse there are about 5 other story ideas competing for the spotlight in my head and it is making it hard to focus on just one thing. Part of me thinks that I should just jot down simple outlines of the plots to get them out of my brain for the time being but I know if I do I am going to want to delve deeper into them.
The hardest to ignore is something I have been toying around with for a few years. The only reason I haven't written it yet is as usual I am stuck on the opening paragraphs. I can't pin down how I want it to start but have most of the major plot points laid out in my head.
It always happens like this. A billion ideas trying to pull me in different directions and then the scary quiet when the words refuse to flow.
I keep thinking I should look for a volunteer editor but finding one that can do what I want done is going to be hard. I read through the list of volunteers and found a huge number of them have a lot of turn offs that would fall into the things I write. I want more than just someone who can spit out the same information that spell/grammar check can. Maybe I want too much. I don't know.
