Doing Write

So the Muse has been pretty silent of late. Oh, I've gone through various flurries of 100 Word Story exercises, but even those have felt uninspired. It's just been a busy time.

So today I opened a door in my mind, got belted in the face iwth a very heavy purse, and awoke to find myself being prodded unmercifully by the Muse with a pitchfork, as she shouted ideas left and right faster than I could write them down, all of them around an idea for a novel I've had for about a year, percolating away in the back of my brain.

So I've started writing down those notes, and will start diagramming out some characters for the cast, and try to figure out what exactly the story is between the beginning and end I have in mind and what else will be going on in the meantime.

If nothing else, I think I have something to occupy me on my long plane ride to Europe and back.
