I have been toying with the idea of trying to write a novel, again
ME, TOO. Well, except for the again part. I just want to get the story I have done. I've got about 40,000 words of crap that I started years (I can't remember how many) ago, and I just want to actually turn it into something. I think this will involve mostly rewriting it as I go, because I'm 90% sure there's nothing salvageable in there except the general outline.
I don't have a lot of story ideas, just one or two, and I'd like to get one of those into something that resembles and actual book. But I've been thinking about it a lot lately, and thinking about the themes that I like writing about in fanfic, and what I'm good at writing, and they all fit this book, even though I didn't know it at the time I started writing it.
