More re book planning/plotting

kijjohnson wrote an interesting entry here on her use of post-it notes to plot her novels. Hmm. I may try this, too.

After I finish the book I'm reading (Cornwell's Sharpe's Prey), I think I'm going to dive back into full time research reading. My back brain is indicating increasing willingness to turn my full attention to the book. I'm certainly thinking about it more. Alas, HPEF is eating up an increasing amount of time. Hope that after the 31st that can be put back on the back burner for awhile.

I imagine that when ROTK comes out in December, that'll be a terrible distraction, too. We also have a week-long trip scheduled in November to go to see my father-in-law for the last time. But otherwise, yes, I'm starting to get back into that write-that-book mindset.

This is good.

Wondering

Is it possible for a person to spontaneously combust out of sheer stress?

I think I may be close to my ignition point.
