the plot thickens.

Still working away at the novel that has now consumed nearly all my silent thoughts and most of my written ones too. As they say in writing form follows function, and while I am keeping with lots of those tried and true storytelling principals, I’m breaking away from some as well.

So the novel is one story told three different ways, and I’m on the tail end of plotting the first way. Goal for the day? Have a good, solid plot outlined. Wish me luck.

So far everything I’ve written has been on legal pads with a very wonderful Papermate Flexigrip pen. In many ways the act of writing is much like playing the piano (something I used to do very well in a former life). It’s so much easier for ideas to flow when your instrument feels right.

And Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms out there!
