I'm glad you won't toss them out, but maybe they can be reconstructed into something new?<br /><br />We can rebuild them!

They were from early on in the writing process for that book. I was surprised by how inventive some of the ideas were and how I had completely discarded or forgotten them. The book ended up where I originally planned, but some of those forgotten notions would have improved the final product. Orphaned ideas are like parentless children waiting to be adopted. Hoping for someone to take them in and put them in a good book. just maybe not the book they were born to.<br /><br />SharonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1268238247379169028.post-85381343268276637162013-05-09T08:24:19.041-07:002013-05-09T08:24:19.041-07:00Recently, I was kind of doing the same thing, only...Recently, I was kind of doing the same thing, only it was more of trying to clean the garage and unpack some boxes that are still packed up since I moved in 2008. LOL I used to make notes and keep them in a binder so they would all be in one place. Some of the half stories I found there brought back some great memories. I was such a different person when those were written, I don't know that I could even go back and finish them today. They were so important then and so trivial now. Something I won't throw away, but definitely something I won't finish.

It makes me wish for a book where the novelist finds all these divergent notes, like you did, but then she does something about them and follows the different paths somehow...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
