Are you planning out every detail of your story? Or writing on the fly carried by inspiration? A little of both?**

I have notes all over the place. When an idea hits I'll jot it down on anything handy. I should really work on being more organized.

That might explain why my current WIP is looking a little bit too much like the crime board picture. I don't even know how that happened. *facepalm*

It didn't start out with a mystery to be solved. It wasn't planned. That was a damn throwaway line.

I'm pushing through it, and I still like the story I'm working on, but a clear path forward would sure as hell help. Still, progress is happening.



**I refer to writing a lot because that's what I'm working on, but dusting off works in progress also includes art, podfic, or any other creative work.

Music, background noise, complete quiet. Something else? What works for you?

I thought AMSR keyboard typing sounds would work for me. They didn't. (When listening to it, I can feel my hair trying to crawl up my scalp.)

But something like this does:

The Friday Five

1. Have you ever been to summer camp?

No. Not the traditional idea of a summer camp. However, my family would spend the whole summer at our camp on the lake.

2. Have you ever made a s'more?

Yes, and still do. Not quite the same made in the microwave though.

3. Have you ever slept under the stars (no tent/tarp)?

Yes, as a kid. My cousin and I decided it would be a great idea. We made homemade hammocks-the kind only a kid could love- under the apple trees. In the morning, I woke up face-to-face with a cow. Goodness, I haven't thought about that in years.

4. Have you ever had a member of the opposite sex sleep over at your house?

Yes. My husband was the opposite sex. (that sounds so weird to type it out like that)

5. What type of bed do you have (queen, twin, bunk, etc.)?

Queen with a brand new mattress. I just replaced the old one a week ago.
