This Time I Actually Have A Novel That I'm WritingHello to the six people who may or may not check this. Y'all are just peaches, you know that? So the last novel that I was trying to write was my NaNoWriMo novel, which never quite finished completion. I fizzled out about a fifth of the way through, which is pitiful.<br />
<br />
Now that I'm done with the pity party, let's get down to business. I have an actual novel in my head. It doesn't have a coherent plot, but the characters are good enough to survive without it. Well, not really. I do need to have a plot for them to live in. And scratch not having a plot. I have one. I just don't know if it is good or not.<br />
<br />
So here is a question that I'm putting out into the universe - would you read a book that dealt with suicide?<br />
<br />
Feel free to answer, if you exist. Because the book deals with suicide. Hopefully well.<br />
<br />
So that was just, you know, a thing in my head that I put on the Internet.<br />
<br />
I'm away laughing on a fast camel,<br />

Eventually.<br /><br /><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Rawr</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">rawr</span> <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">rawr</span><br /><br />I have driver's ed tomorrow.<br /><br />Kill <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">meeeeeee</span>....<br /><br />Goodnight,<br /><br />JenJ.Barosinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03360515300644307415noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3921633171153011141.post-51267669556865168012011-08-06T11:58:00.000-07:002011-08-06T12:22:09.393-07:00Alrighty ThenOkay, so here is the deal.<br /><br />I have had a book idea in my head for the past 16 years. And it has been niggling away at my innards, begging to be written.<br /><br />This is me, documenting that niggling.<br /><br />I don't have Word on my laptop yet, so it is either Wordpad (which SUCKS) or blog it out.<br /><br />So I am choosing to blog.<br /><br />What is going to happen is that every so often this thing/blog/what-have-you is going to get updated with e.g., small snippets of dialogue, character profiles, plot ideas. If you follow this, dear reader, what I write may not make a whole lot of sense to you, but be satisfied in knowing that it makes a hell of a lot of sense to me, and eventually it will pay off.<br /><br />I may ask for opinions and such, and if you would answer I would love it.<br /><br />Thanks a million in advance,<br /><br />JenJ.Barosinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03360515300644307415noreply@blogger.com3
