Back In Control

[queenoftheskies]

At least for now. :)

After the past few days of seeing a few doubts creeping in, I was pleased to wake up back in control of my "writing destiny" (okay, that sounds pretentious, doesn't it?) this morning.

I didn't get lots of sleep last night, but I dreamed LOTS, which I think has LOTS to do with recharging my brain.

I woke up this morning realizing that it was perhaps the growing word count that I found intimidating, fearing that my story was too long and maybe that meant it might be out of control...even though I thought I had a handle on it.

The solution for that is to snip out two of the sub-plots to make room for what I need to finish. I think one subplot will be MUCH better in Dawn of Destiny now that I really think about it and the other subplot will be much better in a later book where the characters in this one come together again before more sh*t hits the fan.

So, there. I feel better. I guess, when I get home, I'll consider actually cutting them out now. I hadn't really wanted to do any editing until I was finished, but it might make me feel better in the long run.

Maybe. I'll decide when I get home.

But, I must be doing at least a little better because I'd already written quite a bit by 7:40 this morning. It's nice that it's quiet today and I have not so many demands on me. :)
