My Journal #2

Halfway through October

Here we are almost halfway through the month and I’m still wondering how my Nanowrimo story will work.  I was gungho with the beginning. I always am. I have an end. I have a middle (the dreaded middle). Now I’m stressing about my characters.

Are they too cardboard cutout?  Have I put the perp in too soon? How will my MC change enough or do I need her to change or just gain more experience from this.

Maybe this really is a novella not a full novel.  Here is where I lack confidence.  I don’t really have anyone to ask. Most people I know are in the same boat or rowing behind me.

I have all these partially written novels in my files. I seem to start with a great plot idea then it fizzles.

I probably  need to find a writing partner or two who will help me overcome this.
