Missing Slider Ryan's Writing Journal

Welcome to my insanity.

I've undertaken the daunting task of writing a 50,000 word novel during the month of November for National Novel Writing Month again.

Enjoy your stay! ~~~ MSR

It was a dark and stormy...

Mood: Good vibes, baby, good vibes

Yeah, you know how that goes, except tonight it's not stormy.

Found the notebook. Whoooohoooo. Barnes and Nobles is my friend. White chocolate mocha is my friend too.

Outlines are someone else's friends. LOL As for my outlines, just one line descriptions or pieces of dialogue written on the fly. Later on, if necessary, then I use an outline to order the myriad scenes, alternate scenes and alternate alternate scenes. Funny how a scene changes over time. Not funny is the rewriting, but hey, that's the fun.

Take care until next time. Same writing journal, same green light!
Umm... don't know what that means.

I find the way you write very fascinating. All the rewriting. I'm too lazy for all that, so in many ways I probably miss many of the subtlies and dark alleys you find in your writing. Once and done with a scene is probably not always the best way to go about it. So here's to alternate scenes!
