thoughts and ramblings about your ideas etc...

Woot! I just finished off a chapter of Ice Cold Blood! And I think it's the longest one till now!
The only thing I had to do was reading back my fanfic till the part I stopped, and then the ideas continued to flow!
The only thing is... it's 3 am. :D But it's been a long time since I wrote without having trouble continueing the chapter. I actually enjoyed it and no headaches or frustration involved! Yay! ;D
mare:
Yay! That's excellent! Congrats!! :)

I've been sitting on an idea for a long time about fertility issues...and lots of drama/relationship breakdown surrounding it...
I am also going back and forth on what to do about Casual. According to my original plan, I have a lot more to go, but even I am getting sick of the Nick and Quinn drama. I am considering taking out a big hunk that was going to be kind of important to then ending, but I think I have a shorter way to get there.
I need to start something new, but I have trouble working on two things at the same time because I really try to get in my character's head and I will be mixed up if I am dealing with more than one at the same time...two in the same story is tough enough as it is!
mare:
aw that is tough. I'm not big on multi-tasking either when it comes to writing. I like your fertility idea.
I would say as far as Casual, if you're sick of the characters and know how to get to the end quicker, I say do it. I'm sure your readers would prefer an ending then to be left hanging. :)

I think if you can shorten Casual without sacrificing your plot, go for it! Sometimes too many subplots, too much drama, or too drawn out of a plot hurts the story rather than helps it - but you also don't want to rush the ending on something you've put this much time into. I've been on both sides of that LOL. If you can write the ending the story deserves, but take a shortcut to get there that will still do the story justice, then do it.
