First, to the person who commented on the previous entry, this will only be my second time attempting NaNoWriMo. The first time, I just came with a plot idea and went with it. But my computer died and then my brother’s laptop that he was letting me use died, so I ended up not finishing it. I did SuNoWriMo on Clean Place, though, and wrote 61,000 words in the month.
So, onto this year’s plot matter. I’m reconsidering my original idea that I said I over-thought. I’m not sure what I’m going to do. I have a basic plot idea for a sequel to my SuNo, but I haven’t decided whether to do that or the contemporary/spiritual fiction idea. In other words…I need to keep praying
I really want to do whatever God wants me to, because without His involvement, it’ll pretty much stink. That’s the same with everything in life, actually…
Aside from NaNoWriMo…I just finished reading “The Visitation” by Frank Peretti. I enjoyed it. I was a little slow getting into it, unlike with his other novels I’ve read – This Present Darkness, Piercing the Darkness, The Oath, Monster, Hangman’s Curse, Nightmare Academy, and the Cooper kids series – but it kept getting more interesting as I went (and for the record, authors, it’s not a good idea to start out slow. You’ll often loose your reader). There were some disturbing parts, frustrating ones, sad and funny parts…and a great message. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone under 16 unless they’re a mature reader, though, because of disturbing parts of two different natures.
Ending this now. Have a truly amazing day.
