The Plot Progresses

Now I'm really getting started, finally.  After I finished Hunting Peace I experienced a mild case of writers block.  The second book was just not coming along, I had characters but no plot, I had problems but no solutions.  A few days ago I was complaining about my lack of ideas and the multitude of surplus characters that I had and my older sister suggested killing of one of the extras.  I didn't give it much thought then but yesterday I was playing with the idea a little bit and peaces started falling into place.  There was my plot and there was the title, all I had to do was kill off that one character.  So to day I'm killing Mitchel.  It's turning out to be sadder then I first thought, Mitchel was such a nice guy I'll miss him.  I'm kind of reluctant to kill him off but than again he needs to die for the plot to progress.  Guess I'll just have to keep a box of tissues close and plow through it.  sniff!

You all have a very blessed day

Finished and Only Beginning

I finished Hunting Peace last night, and in finishing it I found out that there had to be a second book.  So, now it's the series Hunting Peace books one and two.  I'll have to come up with a name for the first book, but for now it's just book one.  This is cool though, I've never had a series before.  Last night after I rapped up the first book, I was brain storming for the second and all these exciting ideas started fitting in and answering unanswered questions left over from the first.  During March I'll probably start working on it, and maybe if things work out I'll get a lot of it written.  A new month is here with a new book to write, new characters to meet, new plot developments to uncover, and an unknown history to figure out.  Can you tell I'm excited?  Here we go!
