agilebritBecause the poor Hubby had a 5:15am showup time for work. And this one is a four-day trip. At least he gets home early on Sunday?
Had a v. productive meeting with the Writing Buddy yesterday. I was still hunting for something for not!Harmony to have for Herself rather than Her Man and the Wreckage of His Psyche. My (published) Mom suggested photography. I noodled that around and decided it didn't really work for the plot--really, how to incorporate that so it actually slides in? So, I thought about drawing instead, because you can do that anywhere, anywhen; all you need is a pencil and a something to draw on. And I thought of a funny character moment to go with it as well.
And then my Writing Buddy suggested "storyboarding."
Because, see, she's an actress, but maybe she's got ambitions to do stuff behind the cameras as well. And if she's going along and kind of sketching out the events as they happen, maybe someone will look at what she's got there and have a Eureka Moment. Or something. I haven't quite figured that part out yet, but it's something I can give her that's All Hers. So, yay. Now I just have to go through and stick that in and have it make actual sense.
But, you know, if I can write a straight romance and then slide lycanthropy into it, this should be a walk in the park, right?
