I’m surprised

…by how many of my new ideas are contemporary, rather than historical. I can’t figure out why that is. But I’ve kind of reached a point where I seem to have no set plan for anything other than sitting down at my laptop (have to stay away from the desktop, or I spend all day answering mail instead of writing). Then stuff just comes out that I don’t even think about.

My productivity is high because of this, but I end the day looking back going, “huh? where did that come from?”

Anyone see Joe versus the Volcano? I think I have a brain cloud.

    I’m sure I could never write historical–too much research and not wanting to irritate the reader by inaccuracies! But I’m finding that in this contemp suspense, too. I have a lot of research to do, but there’s a basis in today, so I don’t think as much is needed. I know not as much is needed. LOL

    As long as your writing, that’s a good thing, cuz I’ll keep reading. Don’t question the muse LOL.
