I still like my new book idea
I am writing on my recent WIP again (about Tami). So, the waves were waving, I came back to the beach, and oh, look! The waves are still here!
Ok, I am ending this now...
I want to say: I still like my story!
But yeah, I realise that this one will become a very different book. It will take much more time than my previous one. I am already rewriting parts and thinking about how to do it better. I am editing way more. I want to write a book that I really, really like.
I put the previous story together so quickly. It was so different. There was not too much overthinking involved, really. I just let the story flow, things fell into place, and that was it. I wanted to be quick, I pushed it so I wouldn’t lose the motivation. It gets so hard in the end, to finish those things. The final editing… and then the final editing after that one…
Anyway, it was a start.
And now it’s time for the next book: a better one. (Or, how future-me will probably want to re-frame it tomorrow: a different one. Ok, ok.) Anyway, my plan is: I will keep re-shaping my WIP, think things over, change stuff, keep making it better. So far, I really like it. It feels more challenging. I already know that I will like this story way more than the one before. I already do. It will be richer, more complex.
If I can finish it… It will be harder to do. It will cost me more time and nerves. But I want that.
