I’m quite content with the four novels I’m working on. And, yet, I still find myself creatively restless. It would be fun to have the side project of a Hollywood screenplay to tinker on if I ever get too frustrated with this huge series I’m working on.
But there are problems. A lot of them.
One, I would risk simply throwing myself into a whole different writing endeavor after three years of working on novels. Second, I would have to invest in book and software for this whole new thing. And, third, I would be starting at even below the current level of likelihood of actually being a success than I am now with these novels. It’s not like I live anywhere near LA, after all.
So, I think I’m going to wait until I reach some major milestone with these four novels I’m working on — maybe four first drafts?
But all this thinking about doing something interesting indicates I need to really start reading books that I haven’t read before and watchin TV shows and movies I’ve never seen. Something, anything to distract myself from the over all project I’m working on at the moment.
