Gonna devote the whole day today to writing

 

[CatrionaGrace]

That's my plan for at least the morning. Got off to a decent start. However, if I don't get up off my dear little tochas and change out my summer clothing for cold weather clothing, that same dear little tochas is liable to get frozen off at some point. That chore will require repeatedly running up and down three sets of stairs, so I should get in a bit of exercise for the day, too.

I gotta take some inspiration from you two and get off my proverbial lazy ass. The extent of new writing for me over the past two months has been a single flash piece. I've got a few extended weekends coming up in November and December where I shall seek to write my face off.

But the question is...try to start a Sex Robot sequel (which would naturally be a satire of the far right), OR - continue working on a hard sci-fi story where I already have a clear vision of where I want to go with it? I've got about 10 days to decide.

The winter clothes are still in storage, but I did get all the garden tools and doodads put away. Had two separate writing sessions today and discovered some interesting things are going to happen in this book. I've already indulged myself by writing about rattlesnakes in one book and horses in another. My next indulgence involves natural disasters.

I'd say the answer is pretty easy on this one. Don't write the sequel unless the prequel sells really well. You should write the hard Sci-Fi and try to sell that afterwards. In the meantime, continue marketing your current book to gather yourself more readers and thus more evidence for the demand of a sequel, which you can write at another point.

It makes sense in my head anyway...
