Writing A.D.D.



I figured out early on in my writing career, that I have what I call Writer’s A.D.D. At certain times, I can’t concentrate on just one story, so I work on two or three at a time. I think of it as keeping the story fresh by switching off on different ones.

It does take longer to get the stories finished, but I don’t get bored or frustrated with any of them…which is a bonus. When I get bored or frustrated, the story gets set aside and I’m less likely to go back to it.

I’ve got three stories going aside from the blog one. The next Home one, another cowboy one (not part of any series) and a contemporary one about two musicians. 🙂 All of them are fun to work on. It’s just that Derek and Max from the Home book are taking their time telling me their story, so it’s a little slow going with them, but I’m keeping at it…lol.

Well, there’s a little update for everyone. I hope you all have a great Wednesday.

    *wipes forehead* *WHEW* I thought I was alone in the WADD world! Ok I didn't have the name for it, but I get that way (I have 4 I'm working on) and I'm not even published yet! (Which is something else I'm working on as well)

    Good luck getting them all done TA!

    I'll second and third that, i re-read the Home books so much I can almost "read" without opening the book ;o)

    TA, hopefully Derek and Max start telling you something soon, I've been waiting "forever" for their story…lol Good luck with the others too. I think I would get too confused going back and forth between the 3, but I get confused easy anyway…lol

    Have a wonderful Wednesday!

    Good Luck Guys. It's better to have W.A.D.D. then piss of the muse and have things dry up. Besides it gives us,your devoted groupies, more things to look forward to.lol

    *sigh* Is that catching? Because I think I have it too! lol

    At least you're working on them. Darn that Derek and Max! Tell those cowboys to stop being so stubborn and to let you write. lol

    Have a great Wednesday TA!
