Thanks Lynn. I re-read the Getting Ready to Write workbook earlier this week. Last year was a bust for me because it was too close to finishing my first draft of my G-Grandfather’s story. I ended up writing some short posts about other family members but I could not get into a groove. This year, I worked to get my manuscript sent off for polish and layout ahead of time. Hopefully, I can make my way through the final edits before February. I have been going through my research to see if I can be inspired for the third novel in my series on my Great Grandparents. I will work through this checklist for each of the four possible protagonists to see if a plot emerges. Nothing yet.
