The Suddenly Evolved

Obsessed I tell you!

I am obsessed with this story! It's all that I think about. I want to know what comes next. Sure, I have an outline and plan, but the actual dialogue and events tend to be imagined as I'm at my keyboard. I don't know if that is a good technique or not, but it's what I do. This obsession has got me writing quite a bit, but not as much as I would like. I've been doing pretty well writing on my morning train, but when I get home I tend to sit down at my desk and get distracted by things. I start working out the cover art or posting blogs about nothing really. Guess what I'm doing right now. I really want to get to the next chapter, but I feel obliged to do this to. I convince myself it is part of the process.
Where am I at and will I hit my deadline? I think I'm in a good place. I've gotten past all the intros and that's the hardest part. Now it's just a matter of getting the words that are in my head on the page. It's the beginning of June and so I have about 6 weeks to meet my self imposed deadline. I think I can meet it. I've just gotten to the part of the story that has me the most excited and the most concerned. I don't know if I can pull it off, and if you know me, self doubt isn't really something I experience very often.
I'm going to get to actual writing now
