More Chaos

I wrote several weeks ago about adding chaos to the story I’m writing. Now I think it needs even more chaos. Also, could be that I’m not getting a good sense of the overall story yet since I’m writing in bits and pieces between the marketing and other activities with First. I think that’s a feeling of lack of investment so far in writing it. When I wrote Next Time it just kind of spilled out in a hurry. It might be that the chaos so far is all in my head due to activities other than writing. This is kind of new territory for me: how do I take the uncertainty of each day and translate that into conflict within a book I’m writing? Books are a product of the time when the author writes them and right now it’s a little chaotic in my writing life. Not sure what to do about that yet other than concentrating on each piece of the pie in turn.
