Working hard, making it happen.

    As I stated in my last thinking out loud post that I wrote last week, I decided that since it is not possible to create daily, or even weekly YouTube videos, I decided to start writing my book once again.  Getting back into the story line was no easy task after being away from it for nearly five years. But slowly and surly, I am immersing myself into the sci-fi world that I have begun to create.

    I already had over 39,000 words written, so I had a lot of material already complete and ready to work with.  Having bought and downloaded the software called writeitnow 5, I have spent the last week importing my work into the software.  This software package was meant to start off with rough ideas, then create a story board, outline and then the actual written text for the book.  But since I had already had so much text already complete, I had to this part of the process backwards.

     After importing all of my finished text, I begun the process of filling out character data into the software, as well as major events, locations and props used in the story.  Also I have been reading through the story and have been developing the storyboard and outline so one, I could have an outline for the entire book, and two, to be able to spot mistakes and contradictions in the plot and etc.  I have been working on this for a solid week, with the limited free time that I have, and am still not complete.  I believe that I still have another three days of work to go before I am able to complete this part of the job and begin to work on the unfinished last half of the book.

    Yes this is a time consuming process and really I did not have to go through the process of creating an outline for what I already have written, but I believe that this will help me as I begin to write new text and it will help me create the best story possible.  As they say, hard work pays off, well it usually does anyway.

    Anyway, this is all for today's blog and I need to get back to work.  I need to take advantage of any and all free time that I have.  Have a great day and don't forget to follow me on blogger :)
