I’ve been playing with a mind mapping application, trying to organize some of the story ideas I have floating around. They all have a common root with different facets of the theme. A couple of the ideas are leftovers from previous NaNoWriMo attempts. Half assembled, barely cooked, but with plenty of potential. A couple are much older ideas that keep rattling around never getting past the initial concept phase. Only one is a recent addition to the pile.
I definitely need a point of focus in order to pour all my writing energy into or else 1000 words a day will just collapse on itself. I’m woefully behind, but I can catch up. I just need the foundation to build upon.
Which leads me to my current situation. Staring at a mind map looking at 6 ideas each glistening with possibility. All enticing yet none really calling my attention. The one plus is all this pondering is allowing me to enjoy a 9 Lazy 9 album I snagged. New discovery for me chocked full of the noise I like.
Of course I’m juggling work emails/responsibilities at the same time. Multi tasking may be the way of the future, but its giving me a wicked case of ADD.
