Slowing down, NO!

Novel writing proceeds. Not hitting the word goals, going to be less social until the end of the month. Play going well, reblocked the fight scene tonight to the director's amusement, but I still maintain it's bad technique and bad stage fighting to ask the umpty year experienced swordguy to "think like a six year old. Girl." That's a STRETCH! Cars all running, but still having minor problems--think the battery in the BMW is damaged. Trying to get back into travel mode, failing, but...

Enjoying cooking very much. Did Dinner Saturday (Purple theme) and Sunday (Frittata) and Pumpkin Chili today. Next weekend, 4 onion soup. Later this week, baked pumpkin with afghan sauce if I can figure out the herbs.

Working out needs to drop back into my life. :)

Are you writing from a prepared set of concepts, like lists of character qualities, and plot sequences, or using another organization fashion, or winging it?

WInging it with a flightplan...

the world generated itself from some logical ideas; the characters are sketched out, and their interaction moves the plot forward. Need more conflict somehow... need more words! The goal is to write 50,000 words of crap! 14K so far. Need to up the rate.
