Blue or Ryan? Argh! When Characters Take Over!

So I'm starting Blue's story in the next coupe of days - OR AM I?

I SHOULD be starting Blue's story, he's the last one in The Wells Brothers trilogy. But is he talking to me? Well, he's whispering. But you know who IS talking? Ryan! LOUDLY!

For crying out loud, I'm not supposed to be doing his story until AFTER I've done Blue's, but will Ryan leave me alone? No. Even when I'm out on my daily walk I'm trying to piece together Blue's story in my mind, and who keeps butting in? RYAN! FREAKIN' RYAN! I mean, what the heck is going on? Since when do the characters dictate who is next? Huh? You tell me that!

Sheesh!

Okay, so I MAY have to admit defeat and write Ryan's story first. I can't believe I'm actually contemplating it as I always write in the order of the books. ARGH!!!!!

Tomorrow I have to paint the laundry, dunny, ceiling and lounge room wall patch-up jobs (all from water damage from leaking pipes in the roof, remember?), and then I'm planning on starting the next book on Wednesday.

My biggest decision will be - Blue or Ryan?

*sigh*....

He kind of did keep popping up, but, you know, he is Aaron's second-in-command, so he was bound to - oh, who am I kidding? He just keeps hovering in the background, waiting

Hmmm...I'm thinking Ryan....ROTFL

Angela Verdenius Hey all, if you could see Blue's cover *wink* which you won't, 'cause I'm TOO MEAN, you might change your mind. Then again, I did find the perfect pic for Ryan....
GAH!!!!

Mikaela Sometimes you just have to go with the story that won't leave you alone. Maybe writing Ryan's story before Blue's will open up something new in Blue's story. ;-) Whichever story you end up writing first, I know they'll both be awesome. Rock on!!

Mona Lewis You know which one I vote for! Ryan all the way! He's just begging to have his story told. You wouldn't be able to do Blue justice with Ryan running through your head, lol. I say this because I really want Ryan's story, I'm being selfish.

Going with the flow...I think you;'re right!

Good point about poor old Blue not getting justice done to his story if Ryan's nudging me!

Angela Verdenius Okay, here is the final decision - yes, I am doing RYAN'S book first! Started the plotting today, printed out his cover to inspire me and stuck it up on the hutch of the writing desk.

After making me veer off my usual writing pattern, and badgering me so much, all I can say is Ryan better not buck the writing system too much and give me trouble - I have a delete key and a finger not afraid to tap it!

Ryan, you have been warned....do NOT give me that look...OMG, what have I done...?
