Killa and writing and plotting

[dswdiane]

Thus far no writing today. At all. But Killa and talked for probably an hour about the plot of Book 3--my problems with it, her problems with it and how to fix said problems without losing what I want the story to be about which is mostly Methos being in danger, the danger bringing feelings about trauma in the past, Duncan and Connor and Methos, himself, being committed to keeping Methos safe and emotionally stable (hey, that's not always easy when severe trauma from the past is coming up) saving and/or rescuing him (or other characters) as needed with assistance from Joe, and less so but still there and available Amanda and Richie. And I'd have to say that that previous sentence may have achieved the status of being numbered among the most run-on sentences ever written. And that is not even all of the elements of the plot, because omigods, I forgot to even mention the ever important on-going and on-going and on-going plot about Methos and Duncan doing what all of us have to do in relationships--fighting, making up, and negotiating and renegotiating how to maintain a long term relationship. And the on-going work that goes on between everyone and everyone about having a long lasting friendship. And no, friendships do not require the same amount of work as committed relationships, but all relationships require some work.

 

Gods that was a long run-on babble. Thanks for your patience if you actually read it. 

And hooray, hurrah Lissa and I got to spend hours and hours hanging out and talking and talking and talking today. Glorious. Made me so happy I'm still glowing. Yay.

Then had a lovely chatting conversation with annavere. Now just hanging about and thinking about writing. May or may not. At least I know more about where I'm going.
