For me, I write with an outline, that helps me stay focused and pointed in the right direction. There are those moments, however, when the creativity takes over and I'll veer away from the outline. Sometimes it's a keeper, sometimes not. But you've got to give yourself the freedom to color outside the lines sometimes. When I find myself struggling in front of the keyboard not knowing where to start, I'll go back to what I wrote the day before and start the rewrite, tweak it up a bit. That almost always gets me back in the flow.(less)

When I'm not working on that, I'm laying out the third novel, which remains unnamed at this point. I'm also laying out some novella's that will fill in some storyline between the first and second novels (although it's not required). The exact sequence of publishing remains undetermined, however. Originally, I was going straight to the novella's but I think right now, I'll push on to book three and four, then return to the novella's.(less)
