Not huge amounts, but it's heavy and wet.<br /><br />I think I have one of those documents, too; I also forget to look at it!JeffOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07947660745120963286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281000668036619727.post-84216919721362772942018-11-28T06:55:20.873-05:002018-11-28T06:55:20.873-05:00Nick--I also figure I might need a little brain br...Nick--I also figure I might need a little brain break after all the work that went into the other project, so I won't sweat it too much--yet!

I'm glad it's not that cold here (although it is snowing today). Don't know if we would have retired here if it did get that cold. <br /><br />Re new projects: I have a document with my ideas written in it. I pretty much add to it whenever something interesting strikes, so when it comes time to write the next one, I look at that document and see if anything bites. Sometimes it does. Sometimes it doesn't. Writing series is a little easier (especially when I have it planned out in advance). But it's harder, too (trying to keep the series fresh). Each subsequent book is a struggle, because I don't want them all to sound the same! <br />Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281000668036619727.post-5496894255437982932018-11-26T10:27:33.097-05:002018-11-26T10:27:33.097-05:00Sounds like you've been having an enjoyable ti...Sounds like you've been having an enjoyable time even if not too much writing done. You can cut yourself slack on a holiday. Our turkey and stuffing is yet to come in a few weeks, so just a normal week here, though we did go to a concert and stay over in an apartment on Friday. To get into a new project, I just start writing and see where it goes - if I'm struggling to get anywhere, that shows that maybe it's not right for now, or maybe that it is - it's not meant to be easy, after all!Nick Wilfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03841776353790635132noreply@blogger.com
