First new thing is I tried snowboarding. After 2-3 hours of torture and nearly getting a concussion, I rented some skis and went back to what I know. I'll let the young people do foolish things like that.
Secondly, I am changing my writing technique. Until now, I wrote like you read. I started at the page one and wrote in sequence until the book was done. I will call this the snowboarding technique because it is also foolish and painful. I am going to start writing the main scenes as I have laid them out in my head. This should allow me to work faster, or at least make it feel like I am making significant progress. I also think it will help me better gauge my progress on the book. I can then stitch the scenes together with pertinent scenes and dialog. You know, like a real writer. :P
LOL I remember when I first started snowboarding. Any more previews.
ReplyDeleteoh where are my manners. Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! (a bit late but better than not at all xD)
ReplyDeleteNice to hear that you tried snowboarding. Hope you didn't hurt to much after your near concussion...(i guess you tried to stop and fell face downhill? that were my fist mistakes...)
Glad to hear you have a faster writting technique as always cant wait for the next book :)
If you want to see a snowboarder get a concussion i will ask a friend to acompany in my holidays in february(yey austria)there is a "Fun-Park" with a 30 meter high jump (maybe i'll life through (hopefully want to read youre next book xD ) what i want to say i post the video ;)
I skied in Austria once or twice. Incredibly beautiful but got a little lost and almost missed the bus back to Berchtesgaden.
ReplyDeleteMy crash was worse. I got my back pointed downhill and went over on my back. My neck is still stiff and it hurts to sit...
Sounds painful... hope you get well soon.
