It’s been a while. Quick update on why I’ve been on hiatus. We bought a house and my ADHD hyper focus has been on remodeling and redesigning the house, and now that I quit my job, we are moving from Kansas to Nebraska so it was now or later, I have more time to work on the house to try and get it done faster. Now moving on to the reason I am blogging.
Last night my brain wouldn’t allowing me to sleep. My ADHD train of thought passed many stations all in a matter of seconds, but one stood out. I was thinking about the second book, specifically how I have written werewolves in my story. Then it hit me, a new dirrection for the story. I have taken time away from the story because I was having a difficult time with the plot. I started with one but it didn’t sit right with me. While I was writing and slowly changing it and I thought I had something but I still wasn’t satisfied with the plot. So just a random thought after not touching the story for months I have a plot I am starting to like. I tried to think about it for month but It became a passing thought to something else.
Taking time away from a troubled plot does help, you never know when it will come and if you force it, it’s no good. Don’t think about it, do something to keep your mind from it, and at some point something will come along and you’ll finally get the plot you want.
I’m glad I waited, and once I get the house done I will be going back to writing.
