Sometimes plot bunnies are great, especially when they come out of nowhere. However, sometimes they show up at the worst time. They usually right before NaNo or sometime during November, and never when I’m trying to come up with ideas, so I try to remember different people I see or ideas that pop into my head.
I have a few ideas in my binder, and I think I have a document or two saved on my USB drive, so I’ll have to compile everything into one document.
I’ll be working on my plot bunnies. I’m still not sure if I’m going to be saving them for November, or if I’ll work on them before that, so I’ll start planning them and see how it works out. I want to save them for November, though, because that’s my best bet for getting anything done. And for now, I have enough to work on, so I’ll wait and see.
My first idea came from watching this one special on the History Channel, about whether there’s a presidents book of secrets and what would be in it. In the special, they were talking about how there was one agency that was kept from the public for a long time, and also about whether there’s stuff the president doesn’t know. An agency that was so secret that even the president doesn’t know about it would make an interesting premise for a novel.
My other idea came from a book called The Pact by Jodi Picoult. I’m not going to go into details about the plot of the novel, as it’s in my top 10 books. I don’t want to be redundant or anything. What if there were two friends who made some kind of pact that had serious consquences?
I’m definitely looking foward to working on these ideas, and it’ll be nice to have something new to work on. I’m not sure how often I’ll work on them, just here and there. I haven’t done any writing today, but I’m not going to worry about not writing every once in a while.
