Because, Y'know, Everybody Writes Four Books At The Same Time.....

It's official: I've begun yet another new book.
Yes, this is in addition to Becoming Brigid (which is in the editing stages and should be published within a few months), The (Dis)Appearance of Nerissa MacKay (which is in the 3rd or 4th draft stage right now, almost ready for gamma readers), and The Chocolate Smuggler's Notebook (uh, okay, I've written one chapter -- and about 6 different outlines for the rest of it).
So, naturally, it makes sense to start a fourth project.  Not.
But this idea is just too good, so I'm going to go with it anyway -- even though it might not be ready for public consumption for a few years.
Tomorrow I'm going to throw out stock characters to my 9GT English class and let them pick names and personality traits.  (This thought makes me smile.)  (And, yes, I'm choosing to work with stock characters intentionally; it suits the project.)
That's all for now, folks.  (*cue Looney Tunes music*)

  3. Well, I haven't even started on my first one yet, so I'm a long way away from 4 at once. Congrats and good luck keeping all those ideas separate!
