In Which I Freak the Hell Out

Ugh. Ugh. Why me. No. Damn it. Ugh. What the hell!

So, I've figured out that the entire idea I had for the Forgotten Falls Trilogy (Enchant, etc.) may have to be... completely swiped and re-done. Well, some of it at least. Mainly the magical aspects of it. I don't know what the hell I am doing with the magic. I don't know anything about how the magic works, what kind of magic it is, pretty much nothing is what I know.

Enchant is turning out to be a more character driven novel anyway, but how can a book that is supposed to be about witches not focus on the magic? I'm thinking I am going to introduce her into the world in Enchant, and have her learn more as it goes along. I just need to figure out how I am going to do that.

Now, how do I keep going with NaNo with this glaring problem? I'm just going to write everything, save the magic, and then completely re-do it in a complete rewrite. Yay.

Thank you Kailia and Jennifer for helping me in my time of need tonight!

See you tomorrow,
