I’ve sat down and gone through all my stories that are in one part or another of development. It’s strange but they’re all at a progressive stage like 60 odd pages in, and there is loads of parts that I know how to expand upon, it’s just that I’ve not really thought about the time, etc. I think I’ve really got to put the rubbish that was february behind me and tackle the new month in earnest. I suppose lots of people kind of coast through the year, and while I’ve also done this in the past I’m pretty determind to make something of this year.

I’ve decided that the best call of action is to hone my art skills in the coming year, really get to grips with all the points I feel I falter on, work on those aspects long and hard. This way I won’t feel inadequate to tackle the stories that I will have written by the END of the year. That’s a lot of stories, but hey if I’ve got quiet a few scripts written and ready to go in one form or another, then I’ll at least have most of my ideas down on paper. Throughout the year I’ll then concentrate on the character sketches and building the worlds I want these characters to inhabit. At the end of the year I’ll have done the leg work for many of the stories.

While I won’t have actually finished a single book fully, I’ll have moved forward in terms of research and plot and dialogue and basically the scripts and sketches will have been done.

It’s ambitious but I think it’s the way I’ve got to approach this. Once I’ve got the scripts done then it’s a matter of choosing which ones I’d like to tackle first. Who know how I feel about this idea tomorrow, but right now at this point in my life I’m pretty content to trying my best to achieve a better March because February was pure garbage from every concievable point of view.

As the song goes ….‘things can only get better….’ (yeah forget the rest of that verse, it doesn’t apply here)
