So. I have a conundrum. I've finished round one edits for Book 2 in the Tales of Gymandrol series.
What do I work on next??
I have the following projects:
-Middle grade (MG) book about a girl, contemporary setting - 10 pages written
-Young Adult (YA) book about a guy, contemporary setting - outline somewhat written
-General fiction (possibly "chick lit") about a 20-something after her engagement is broken off - 15 pages written
-Book 3 in the Tales of Gymandrol series - 80 pages written
Chris said I should work on Book 3 so I can get it out of my head. BUT! I'm kinda thinking I want to work on something other than fantasy for a short time. I was able to finish a young reader's book this month and it was so much fun to do something radically different than YA fantasy. It also made me realize how much I love so many different genres of books. Not only to read but also to write.
And for NaNoWriMo, you're not supposed to work on anything that you've already written. So...it might be the YA guy story. Or...I might have some new lightning bolt idea between now and November 1!
That's it for this Melissa-ish Monday. What are you planning on writing for NaNoWriMo?
Happy writing!
I say go with whatever is the least formed in your mind. NaNo will force you to form it up. You can take mad notes on the other stories as ideas fling into your mind. I'm going fairy tale retell for my NaNo.
