Considering how well things have tunred out for me in the past week, you'd think I'd be jumping for joy. The reason I'm not is that something is missing. Something BIG is missing from my life and I can tell because there is just this void, but I have absolutely no clue what it is (If I did know, I'd not be bitching about it because it wouldn't be a void).
Anyway, I have this idea for some good writing that I want to do but I can't get started yet because I need to have it all outlined. The problem is that every time I try to do it, I keep forgetting about something which doesn't fit into the outline after I want to put it in. This story idea has a big plot with several milestones I want to hit along the way. So anyway, when I find that one milestone for one character is just OUT of character I get rid of it... but then that DESTROYES the other milestones because everything in this story is related. In a way it is like Red Vs. Blue, where one thing leads to another leads to another, and taking one thing out will keep it from making sense. Maybe I could just start writing and let new plot elements come to life from what makes sense, and damn the outline. Make it unpredictable even to myself.
