Back To The Future....I Mean Beginning

I totally had a whole post planned out and then I finally got to the internet, clicked "new post," and forgot all the witty things I was wanting to say. Damn.

Wait. I remember it was about my first NaNo novel (now called Everything Ends).

Right. I'm working on it. Kind of. For last month's meeting for Wicked Wordsmiths of the West (my writing group) I wrote a flash fiction piece that featured my two main characters from Everything Ends: Oliver and Juliet. After I wrote it I figured it would fit nicely in my unfinished novel and the piece even got a good reception.

It was the first time I had ever let anyone read anything I had written (aside from my fiance, of course). WHAT? I call myself a writer and I don't let anyone read anything! What madness is this? Extreme madness, I know. But I'm getting over my fear of getting out there.

Anyway, I have been trying to start at the very beginning and actually outline where I want this to go. I have many, many holes that need filled in and whatnot.

Then there will be the editing. But let's not go there just yet.
