I started a story for ROW80, and I’ve just been frustrated with it. I’ve written on it two days, and it was all I could do to get my 700 words out each day because I just wasn’t enjoying it. I had no idea where I wanted this story to go other than this vague thing in my head. But this morning, an idea for another story hit me and it just started flooding my mind. I knew exactly where this one was going. THIS is the story I was meant to write, NOT the one I was struggling with. And most of you know I have a lot of trouble figuring out a title for my books. The title to this one came almost immediately after the idea. I’m going to do a search and see if there are other books with the same title, but even if I find some, I’ll probably stick with it. Because there are LOTS of books out there with the same title. I said I wasn’t going to do another vampire story in the near future and that I was going to stick to ghosts. But a vampire got into my head and said “You have to write about me. Now!” So I have no choice. This is SO exciting. I haven’t been this pumped up about a story since Haunted Lake! Woohoo!
New Idea Excitement!

Yay!
So glad it hit me this morning. When my husband came home I was like “oh my goodness, I just had this idea”. He grinned really big because I was so excited.
Yay for excitement! That makes it so much easier to get those words down every day.
Kait, it’s so hard to write when you’re writing the wrong story. This is going to be so much better!
Ooh ooh! Can’t wait to hear all about it! And you already have at title! Awesome!
Can you believe it? I already know the TITLE. I’ll share that with everyone soon. And I’m going to talk to you about the cover, too.
Love it, Lauralynn! Mya te words grab you up and pour out of you over the next 80 days….
Ahem…that was meant to be so fun and frivilous…but typos ruined it. Sigh. May the. Stupid keyboard. Stupid fingers. I’m going to eat a sandwich now. Ha!
Nadja, does it help if I tell you I actually knew what you meant? LOL.
I’m really hoping the words keep flowing. š
New ideas are exciting!!! You better get to writing about this vampire before he bites you. LOL š
And that would be a bad thing??? LOL
