I mean, we all have multiple voices in our heads, right? <br /><br />Abbi! I'm so glad you found the way that works for you. I think for the first novel it's a bunch of trial and error, but that's the way you learn, and you're never wasting time. Good luck with the chapter outlines!Hannah L.

I knew what I really had to do, but, I thought I could wing it and make something great anyways. I've finally got my head on straight and this Spring decided I'd do things the right way. So far I've got the Outline, most of the main characters names, around six Character Profiles, what I want to happen for the Prologue, and I'm hoping to start on Chapter Outlines soon. <br />-Abbigayle Rashae<br />-trueblueabbi.blogspot.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932501572591228452.post-33078944160789041722011-12-02T18:34:03.864-08:002011-12-02T18:34:03.864-08:00I'm a little of both.

I agree; any good book is definitely worth owning. As far as preordering my book on Amazon, unfortunately it's not availible for pre-order. Because of the type of printer I've gone with, there's no danger of it going out of stock, so that's good news in and of itself. <br /><br />Thanks, for stopping by, ladies!Hannah L.

And honestly I hate the waiting part. But its always worth it. And I always reread the previous books right before the next one comes out (even though some people think its crazy I have more than once started a book over the moment I am finished with it . . . And any good book is worth owning so I can read it multiple times). And I think I would be a gardener . . . At least that is how I tell stories to my kids. But I honestly cant imagine having the patience or endurance to write a book. But never say never, right? :) must go preorder your book on amazon . . . Giving it to a few people as christmas gifts!!The Oborn Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06022882016420051131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-932501572591228452.post-76527198237289521402011-11-21T08:38:07.977-08:002011-11-21T08:38:07.977-08:00I am definitely a gardener.

I'll think of a few things that the story must hold, then allow my characters to choose the path they take and cultivate the rest of the plot as we go.<br />I can't sit down and decide a majority of the plot beforehand, or else nothing flows.Erisnyxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08260566285489470096noreply@blogger.com
