Tortured

Monday, 21 September 2009, 8:46 | Category : Muse Mondays, Writing goals

I’m torn between two ideas.

The first one, the one I started writing here, I find much easier to write. The words really just flow out when I’m working on it. It’s a contemporary YA, but turning out very different in tone than my first novel, despite having similarly heavy topics.

The second one is a fun idea I had for a superhero novel. Not a graphic novel, though that might be a mistake. I’ve tried to read a few graphic novels and really couldn’t get into them. Maybe I’m reading the wrong things? Anyway, I’ve been trying to put thoughts to paper with this one and I just can’t get it started. Maybe I just haven’t given the idea enough time to percolate in my brain, maybe I’m waiting for the perfect first line to come to me, but I just can’t seem to freaking do it already.

So…my goals for the week. Very funny. Figure out what I’m doing, I guess. Choose one of the projects to focus on and write at least 1000 more words.

I hope all my Muse Mondays aren’t as tortured as this week’s.
