Knots in my tummy

Hey all,

It's been a while since i posted on here, and for good reason: I had hit a writer's block *gasp*. This past weekend though was sunny and beautiful, and yesterday I took my lappy down to starbucks got to work.

First i researched a few more agents, and sent out some more queries. Then, after getting bored of that, I finally got cracking.

I'm still not done the sequel, but i wrote about 5000 words, and finally have the end in sight. My problem was that I knew how to end it, but not how to tie it into the third (and final) novel in the series. I hadn't developed the storyline enough in that one that allowed me to make the connections i needed.

So, anyway, after writing a bunch out yesterday, I'm back to tummy knots and anxiousness as I write again. This is good, in the sense that completion is near, and the knots are from my creative spirit wrangling about new ideas in my head, but it's also a bit annoying when i'm trying to do my real job. What's even harder is trying to remember everything that randomly pops into my head until i get home to my laptop.

So that's my update. I'm going to write more tonight after baseball I hope, and also work on the development of a new character for book 3: his name is October, and he will be a key player in the final showdown.... *insert ominous music here*
