My head just exploded, ma...6 or 7 stories at once!? My head just exploded, maybe you heard it? <br /><br />I have my last year's NaNo that 's still stewing/composting, waiting for it's rewrite after the first of the year. Right now, I have this year's NaNo bubbling in my head and I'm working feverishly on plot, setting, and characters. To throw a whole new story into the pot would KILL ME. I am in awe of those of you who can juggle so many stories!TL Conwayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08831728300345220814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759789976253980784.post-31248626401210341462011-08-05T09:59:40.667-04:002011-08-05T09:59:40.667-04:00Honestly, I haven't tried working on multiple ...Honestly, I haven't tried working on multiple stories at once. Usually my multitasking involves doing research and worldbuilding and outlining for other stories on the side. <br /><br />By the way, I've passed on a blog award to you.

Right now, the one I'm trying to figure out has been in my head longer than the one that's complete and in revisions with an editor. No idea how that worked out.<br /><br />Hillary<br />www.hillaryjacques.blogspot.comHillary Jacqueshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10394482441040531244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759789976253980784.post-11044894005548405272011-08-03T15:41:44.668-04:002011-08-03T15:41:44.668-04:00cookie: Yeah, I usually switch project for NaNo to...cookie: Yeah, I usually switch project for NaNo too. It's a good occasion to give some attention to the less developped ideas.<br /><br />Margo: Full immersion is why I work in big chunks. I try to complete one draft (or one set of revisions) before I switch project.<br /><br />GKJ: Who needs productivity?

This is why I am trying to improve my focus and become more of a plotter... Otherwise I never finish anything.Jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12314617048592538691noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759789976253980784.post-81713938783795169732011-08-02T22:14:16.075-04:002011-08-02T22:14:16.075-04:00I have three WIPs at the moment.

If I have any more, I think my productivity will throw itself out the window. xD<br /><br />I tend to work on whichever one inspires me at the moment. Unfortunately, this can change daily, so now I'm forcing myself to pick one and stick with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-759789976253980784.post-20958977927017138082011-08-02T18:16:05.128-04:002011-08-02T18:16:05.128-04:00I try not to jump between projects, because I pref...I try not to jump between projects, because I prefer the full immersion experience.

I usually just work on the main one (my current one), and if I get an idea for another, or during NaNo, I will switch to another one.cookiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05188576122682176946noreply@blogger.com
