So… while I have a sort of Nano started, I’m sitting here after One AM reading part of a story told from Andrew’s point of view. I’ve totally fallen in love with his character. i find it really interesting because I’ve never felt like I can write strong male characters. Trouble is I am spending time into the wee hours of the morn reading old scenes, bits of stories and other ideas from my other works-in-progress. Surely other writers read and reread their stuff all the time? It’s not really productive as far as the other writing is concerned but it is enjoyable.
In my Nano for this year, I started writing it just from Rachel’s point of view, then a scene featuring her brother popped into my head. So, I think I’ll try to alternate the story from their different points of view. Only thing is I don’t really know what their story is.
Rachel is the younger sister and she doesn’t get along with her brother– her perfect brother. She’s a daddy’s girl. I think maybe they end up being forced (or strongly encouraged to spend some time together.)
I’ll write more later. I may crawl into bed, as soon as I refresh my LJ friend’s page, check email and maybe peek at the Nano forums one more time. Ugh, I spent way too much time there today.
