WRITE MOAR

 Things are... progressing on the supernatural crime thriller.  Unexpectedly quickly, tbh.  Now I just have that issue with plotting - I'm somewhere between being a plotter and a pantser, in that plotting out the full novel just drains away my enthusiasm, but I do need a frame.  It's more complicated when I'm writing mysteries/crime, though, as I need to do more plotting upfront, so there's a delicate balance.  The working title is: DS Karen Thewlis's No Good Very Bad Case, so I'm percolating over catchier titles too.  It's also kind of a sequel to my 2008 NaNo project, so I might dust off that and clean it up when I'm done (current project stands alone, but still).

The main trouble is I'm also coming  up with multiple sequels as I go - more cases for DS Thewlis, more cases for pre-existing supernatural cops Never and Elfrida, what happens to the surviving victims and how they might interact with characters from previous stories, etc.  I'm keeping copious notes; I just wish I could keep this WRITE ALL THE THINGS momentum going.
