I have, sadly, gotten caught up in my own research and put too much in, then had to edit it out. The good thing being I might already have scenes written for future novels now. I’ll be glad when I can visit the places I’ve only been able to research through books. I have a setting in Puerto Rico in my second novel and I’m afraid it reads too much like a travel guide. Lori Storm’s THE LIBRARY was interesting. I only remember going to the library as class field trips, or a rare occasion with my Mom and it was a rushed experience. I especially liked this from Lori’s ending: Going into the library, even now, is like entering a comforting world filled with endless possibilities for new experiences. GET IT RIGHT: That was neat. How about these commonly misused words; affect and effect. The research article with Tasha was very informative.

I am going on one year Feb 14. For me to stick to only one idea, one website is a huge accomplishment. I think goals are important to motivate us and keep us full of passion.
