I'm starting a new book which means I have a whole new piece of history to explore. In this case, it's actually more than one piece of history - at least I think so.
Which means I have lots of eras to get familiar with. And multiple characters to live in those eras. People who will go through immigration, deportation, war, and I don't know what all. I have only the vaguest idea of what will happen or what really did happen in the history behind this story.
I have a concept but no real certainty that I can pull it off. I have 3 DVDs and 4 books to get me started on research. I have the internet. And dreams of travel.
I have 6 lines. I think they are rather beautiful.
I feel very rich.
And as hopeful as an immigrant moving to a new land.
Yah, sounds exciting! Especially the travel dreams. :)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you're happily in the magic dream place! :)
ReplyDeleteAmy - exciting yes! But before I travel I have lots of reading to do. Got to figure out what to see and who to interview when I am in Germany.
ReplyDeleteBecky, I AM happy in this dream place.
Ohhhh... I am excited to hear more about it!! Can't wait to read it!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Nicole - I am sure I'll be blogging about it some more.
ReplyDeleteSix lines is better than no lines. And I bet by the time I've written this reply, you have far more than that. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm looking forward to hearing more about this project!
oooh - while you're in Germany, let me know if you meet any "Earnhardts". I think it's spelled "Ehrenhardt" over there.
ReplyDelete:) :)
Hugs,
Donna
Donna, I do have a few more lines - but not that many.
ReplyDeleteEhrenhardt - I'll keep my eyes open and who knows - maybe I'll have a character by that name.
Ahh! You gave away part of your story!!!
ReplyDeleteCarol, you picked up on that! Well, hey, it's the very first thing! I'm sure I'll be revealing more as I write.
