I continue to move along at a nice little clip with this scifi novel dramedy, but I do worry that I’m spinning my creative wheels a little too much. That’s something that really got me with the thriller I worked on for so long — I often spun my wheels on the specifics of a certain part of the novel so much that I kind of got burnt out.
Hopefully, that won’t happen this time.
What I HOPE to do, is just zoom through the first draft out line, then work on some character studies and then be a lot more methodical about the second draft.
I also keep being tempted to use some of the names I came up with for the thriller. I haven’t gotten to the point where I want to use it quite yet. I guess I still have hope that I’ll be able to turn my attention to the thriller universe again eventually.
But…I don’t know. Is sure is tempting.
I think that’s a second draft thing to decide, one way or another.
