Decisions, Decisions.

Well, I've got roughly seventy pages left to type of Blaze. As I'm reading through everything that I wrote on it years ago I'm pretty pleased. There are a few places where I didn't add enough description so it seems rushed, but I can spot them and I know I'll be able to fix them. And of course issues like Does Blade sleep with his sword on? Then why is he wearing it when he just woke up? Make the boy go get it!

But things like that are easily dealt with.

 

Since I'm so close to finishing typing it, and I'm technically finished writing the first draft, I'm trying to decide which story to write next. During the car ride yesterday I wrote a list of all of my stories.

Stories I started when I was little. Finished and not so much. Some of them had really good ideas, they just need a more mature hand to write them. I could go back and start on them.

Stories that I've started in the last couple years that aren't quite finished.

Short stories, and stories I co-authored with a friend that I would like to take my characters out of and do something fun with.

And then a list of ideas that I haven't started at all, but that seem pretty brilliant in my head.

 

It's a daunting task.

But I am dauntless ;)

 

Right now I think I'd probably better focus on one of my more recent stories. The story worlds are still pretty fresh in my mind, and it will take less work than trying to reconstruct some of my old works.

Minion 1 tells me I'm absolutely forbidden from starting a completely new idea before I finish the others I've started, so I guess that's that.

I'm forbidden.

 

So that puts my choices down to:

Raising Rebels

Beautiful Things

Jake's Story

Purpose

The blurbs are on My Stories page, if you want to look at them and give me your vote. I've been asking Minion 1 for weeks and she won't tell me which one she wants first.
