New approaches to writing ( 1555 reads) |

The more I write as a professional, published, author, the more I learn about the process. I've realized that my mind tends to wander, making me write multiple projects at once. This however slows down my rate of finished material and can lead me to either vomit forth considerable releases in a short span of time, or leave me barehanded with a dozen half-finished projects.
At this stage, I have decided that I will finalize Fleshcrafting (in writing now) and make Symbiots a smaller release. After that, my "in the works" stuff for 3.5 is over and done with and I can start focusing on one project at a time.
Phrenic Shards is complete and only needs proofing before it goes into layout and editing, and I got a True20 version underway (see what I mean about multiple projects?) which should be finished in under a week.
Now, I'm not sure that a 100% focused style of writing fits my mind or how I do work, although I am going to give it a serious try to see how it works out and if it feels like I get more accomplished in a shorter timeframe. Wish me luck! 
BTW - in the works right now:
4E
Phrenic Shards - finished, in proofing
Knightmare (4E morphean variant) - conceptual stage, some playtesting
Mini-setting: Dark Earth - conceptual stage, some basic writing has been done
3.5E
Third Dawn - finished writing, in proofing/layout/editing
High Psionics: Fleshcrafting - finished writing, in proofing/layout/editing
High Psionics: Symbiotes - 45% finished
True20
Third Dawn - finished writing and conversion
Phrenic Shards (to be renamed) - finished writing, mechanics 60% converted
Mini-setting: PSION - conceptual stage, basic writing, in playtesting
Psionic Handbook - 35% finished
M&M
Inhuman - 25% done
PSION: Unleashed - 20% done
