So, I finished a book a little over a month ago, and I've been kind of half-assedly kicking ideas around, waiting for my brain to bring me something juicy. Well, today that happened. I was driving down the road and BLAMMO! Suddenly the whole story is in my head. I know everything about it. The plot, the subplot, the characters, the crisis, everything. The downside? I almost drove my poor car off of the road. Have you ever had an idea hit you so hard it's almost a physical thing?
I'm still slightly floored by this whole thing.
