Why is it, that when I should be working on one project (i.e. plotting out my NaNo novel(s)) I get completely inspired to plot out a dozen more stories, and yet when I don't have a current project that requires my attention, I feel bereft of ideas?
Everywhere I look, everything I do, my brain seems to be running away from me, conjuring up characters from other ideas I've had filed away until a later date, or, worse, coming up with new ideas. Everything seems to inspire me- just not for the right project!
NaNo starts in three days. It's a long weekend here, and I'd planned to do some prep, but mostly I've found myself lounging around the house, pottering around with unimportant things. Which is probably a good idea, since I won't have time for such lounging around with the NaNo deadline hanging over my head.
I do think I've solved some lack-of-plot issues with the middle part of my main NaNo project, which was looking somewhat empty in the middle. I still need something else- or possibly someone else- to stir things up somewhat, but hopefully that'll come to me as I go along!
