					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://dhyoung.net/2013/03/29/dont-let-the-title-fool-you/#comment-4610&quot;&gt;Rebecca&lt;/a&gt;.

Well, thanks again. And I agree with you about the insufficient tension/suspense in PS. The book&#039;s structure was pretty weird, and shoehorning the plot(s) into it probably meant I didn&#039;t pay as much attention as I should&#039;ve to...well, to important bits. Plus, of course, the title is probably a turn-off for most potential readers. Can&#039;t bring myself to change it, though.

Anyway. I&#039;m going back to what&#039;s worked best for me, plot-wise, in the past--and writing The Secret with no plan whatsoever. Just telling myself a story as I go, and writing whatever seems like the most fun along the way. Doesn&#039;t seem like it should work. But all the planning I felt I had to do for PS took a lot of the fun out of writing it, and slowed me down a good bit too.

Sorry I took so long to approve your comment. No internet since lunch yesterday, y&#039;know. If you use the same email address &amp; want to post again, it&#039;ll auto-approve from now on.

Well, thanks again. And I agree with you about the insufficient tension/suspense in PS. The book's structure was pretty weird, and shoehorning the plot(s) into it probably meant I didn't pay as much attention as I should've to...well, to important bits. Plus, of course, the title is probably a turn-off for most potential readers. Can't bring myself to change it, though.
