I don't do this as much as I once did--though when I near the finish of the latest in one series, I admit to mind wandering over to what I might write in the other series.

Then, I accidentally came across the Laundress and decided I had only a few chapters to finish the book, so I did. It is now out in eBook. I'm so glad I did. I think it is one of my better writings. maryhagenauthorrommance.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16509280495290878266noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-10635407633201908262022-02-16T13:18:55.140-06:002022-02-16T13:18:55.140-06:00It's good to have multiple ideas as long as we...It's good to have multiple ideas as long as we can remain focused. I like the idea of leaving notes to oneself and coming back to work on a new idea once the current project is completed.Jacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-40133594981970842042022-02-16T10:41:33.648-06:002022-02-16T10:41:33.648-06:00I (usually) do pretty much the same thing...write ...I (usually) do pretty much the same thing...write a paragraph or page on the new idea then put it aside to finish my current WIP.<br /><br />Great post.<br />Good luck and God's blessings<br />PamTPamela S Thibodeauxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12951038997223264816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-70783499814625769272022-02-16T09:48:22.718-06:002022-02-16T09:48:22.718-06:00Good to know I'm not the only one with a short...Good to know I'm not the only one with a short attention span. Seems the older I get, the shorter it gets! I've been working on a NanoWriMo book from many years ago, which I had kept putting aside in favor of writing other brainstorms instead. Now I'm at a hard part in the story and it's very tempting to abandon it in favor of starting another. It's always easier at the beginning, but much harder to follow through!Morgan Mandelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885472833094930724noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-31671665906498528182022-02-16T09:03:36.472-06:002022-02-16T09:03:36.472-06:00I love this.

When you get an idea that won't go away, just give yourself permission to at least write down the basics until you have time to devote to finishing it. Hopefully, your mind will then let you get back to the project at hand! Great post.Patricia Kiyonohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14763838993363110626noreply@blogger.com
