Now, I put new under quotes for a reason. It's not a new story. It's a story I first wrote back in college, when my late wife and I were dating. So, yeah, well over two decades old--we were married for twenty-two and a half years before her passing. But what's new is what I'm doing with it.
I'm using the old story as an outline.
I did this with a fantasy novel a few years ago, before moving on to another project--don't worry, I'll pick it back up again. So far, I'm making great progress.
I know, I know, I have written about my dislike toward outlining before. So I'm revising my thoughts toward outlining. For me, for the most part, outlining is a waste of time. But now, and a few times in the past, when I've hit a bit of a block, getting thoughts down on paper has helped dislodge the block.
I'm currently at the 6,300 word mark. It'll be interesting how soon I can get this one published.
Wish me luck!
