I ...Hi lindseye, That's an excellent question. I do work on several books at the same time, and I keep them straight using excel files for my outlines. Each book I write gets a couple of excel files. One is used to describe and create all the characters - their physical characteristics, personalities, and how they relate to one another. The other excel file is used as an outline for the direction I want the story to go. As I pass key areas I hightlight them on the file and move on. No matter how much time away from that book I spend, I'll always go right back to the paragraph I left off. Thanks so much for coming by today and good luck on the contest.<br /><br />Missy Martine<br />www.missymartine.comMissy Martinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17503253668004807728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2799451507801345644.post-6046484000007547642012-06-30T17:13:59.769-04:002012-06-30T17:13:59.769-04:00Well hello, bn100 :) My plans center around July ...Well hello, bn100 :) My plans center around July 3rd instead of the 4th.

Actually, it's a "belated" release party. Things kind of got put on hold while I recovered from a nasty bout with pancreatitis. Being put in the hospital while you're on vacation, in a strange city, is no fun at all!<br /><br />I got the idea for Star Wishes when I was researching the Old West for my book Anna Doubles Down. The more I read made me think it would have been the perfect time for me to have lived my life. I think I would have been happy living back when things were so much simplier. But, then I got to thinking about how independent I am now and started wondering how you could be independent back in the 1800's. It was easy to put together a storyline from that view point. The book was great fun to write, and I plan a couple of more in the not too distant future that deal with some of the orphans in this book.<br /><br />Next for me is the sequel to Anna Doubles Down called "When Kat's Away". It will be released by Siren Bookstrand on July 11th. After that, near the end of July, is a new series starting. Galactic Nuptials 1 - Space Bride will be released. There are 2 following rather quickly after that - "My Chameleon Loves" and "Meredith's Pride". I've also started the outlines for a continuation of the Wolfen Heritage Series. The new version - A Wolfen Heritage - The Next Gen - 25 Years Later will have 6 books. The first one will be titled "Blind Acceptance" They will be coming out next year. So, as you can see, I'm keeping busy :)<br /><br />Again, thanks for hosting my party and I look forward to hearing from some of the readers today. Ask me anything and I'll try my best to answer :)<br /><br />Missy Martine<br />www.missymartine.comMissy Martinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17503253668004807728noreply@blogger.com
