On the Hunt

[ammepyre]

I continue to plug away on the historical but it's very hard getting into the proper mind space after work. A paragraph a day isn't getting me very far. Especially when I cheat and count a line of dialogue as a paragraph. *is shameful, yes

I do tend to go back to old ideas sometimes. In fact, my current WIP is a heavily-modified and changed version of my very first finished novel. Even after several years of having finished it, I still found myself thinking about some of the characters and wanting to tell their story.

I can't really say how well it's turned out because I'm nowhere near done with it yet, but I get the feeling that I'm going to reach a point where it all comes together in a way that the earlier version didn't. And I think that what I wind up with is going to be pretty good.

So yes, I do go back to old ideas sometimes and even though I have days when I hate this story a lot more than I hated most of my other stories, I still feel like it's the right story for me to be working on right now. I guess in that sense it has turned out well, then. Good luck with whatever you choose.

I haven't actually worked on an old idea, but there are a few I will keep in mind because I'd like to work on them some day. I think if the idea is strong enough it will stick with you no matter what, and there's no real reason why you can't work it into something new and fantastic :)
