I got a few reader questions about what I do before I write a book, so that’s the topic of this week’s vlog post (which is late. Oops).
We’re talking ideas, characters, plotting, and pantsing!

Idea! *boing boing boing*
I may or may not act like Tigger when I’m excited. Don’t judge.
Mmmmmm… What’s better than a new idea? I’ll tell you: a developing idea. One that smacked you out of the blue one day while you were out for a walk, that’s been festering quietly for months, occasionally tapping you on the shoulder to get some attention, only to be told, “Not yet.”
Then one day you give in, you break out the idea development notebook (or binder, computer file, back-of-napkin, whatever), and it starts to really take shape.
I have an idea. A fun concept involving ghosts and muses and romance and mysteries. It’s even set in our world, so it’s significantly different from my other novels.
Will it be brilliant? Probably not. But damn, it’s going to be fun!
Now if I could just finish figuring out the plot…
