That is really the most crucial step in writing a book right?
No idea, no story, no book.
I have the idea.
And I'm in love with it.. but I am still getting to know my idea.
I'm learning about my characters... what they are like, what they do, how they feel about things. I need to do some research to better understand them.
This weekend, I had a fork in the road moment where I decided some things about my main character that are VERY different from my initial idea.
And better.
I was washing dishes and scrubbing my counter and I had to keep drying my hands to run over to my pc and jot down notes on the couple of pages of ideas I have saved for this novel on my desktop.
I'm ready to start a storyboard - both physically and electronically.
I want to be super organized while doing this so I don't get discouraged so I am also looking for a novel organizing, writing, software thingy to help.
I will be putting snippets up here once I have some but for now, I am still planning and organizing and smiling ear to effing ear because I am so super excited about this.
