Thank you, LiteraryMania! I will definitely check it out for the educational benefits. It definitely sounds intriguing.

I know some people maybe wouldn't love the research but I do! So much. And as I research I change my outline around a little. I'm learning so much just from this aspect of writing and outlining.

Thanks--I'll try that! But it's primarily typing and piano. I will work on the fountain pen, though, because I could first write it on paper and then read it onto the computer making my first set of edits like that :)

That is a great idea. Last year December was NaNoRevisoMo!
The endless editing!

Yvonne | 126 comments Anita - I did online writing course several years ago as you know, so I encourage you. The course definitely made me write because it gave me assignments and due-dates. I haven't written in a few years now, but funny- I was just thinking about it the other day. I'm not going to do another course, but I might just try getting back to writing, so keep me posted as you try to put something together.

Yes! The same thing happens to me when I do research. There have been times when researching something has affected my entire novel but I don't mind because it means it's accurate and I usually end up getting even more ideas.
