TGIF!
Tonight we'll have dinner from out, maybe Chinese, and watch Live PD.
I may be reading MASTERING THE PROCESS: From Idea to Novel by Elizabeth George. Nonfiction.
For many writers, the biggest challenge is figuring out how to take that earliest glimmer of inspiration and shape it into a full-length novel. How do you even begin to transform a single idea into a complete book? In these pages, award-winning, number one New York Times bestselling author Elizabeth George takes us behind the scenes through each step of her writing process, revealing exactly what it takes to craft a novel. Drawing from her personal photos, early notes, character analyses, and rough drafts, George shows us every stage of how she wrote her novel Careless in Red, from researching location to imagining plot to creating characters to the actual writing and revision processes themselves. George offers us an intimate look at the procedures she follows, while also providing invaluable advice for writers about what has worked for her--and what hasn't. Mastering the Process gives writers practical, prescriptive, and achievable tools for creating a novel, editing a novel, and problem solving when in the midst of a novel, from a master storyteller writing at the top of her game.
My book has been itching at me again. I really want to write it. But I've got ... performance issues.
Yep. Anyhoo.
No plans for the weekend. Maybe stopping by the bead store. Steve's birthday is tomorrow but we don't have any plans yet.
Have a good weekend
Much love,
