Write said Fred

I was having coffee with a friend of mine today, who for the purposes of respecting privacy I will call Fred. So I was having coffee with Fred and she said "all this time you're spending blogging about writing, couldn't you be spending it writing?"

This blog is providing the drive to do this thing but Amy's right to some degree, before I go on I should probably write some stuff. The following is my list of things I think I should start on;

1) As detailed an outline as possible of the first act of the story (including backstory)

2) A freely written conversation between characters

3) The sense of 'wholeness' I think my story should be headed towards

They seem like good places to start. I don't know how much of these i'll share on here. Time will tell.

If anyone has an opinion on anything else I should be writing about at this point please feel free to comment.

I'll keep blogging while i'm doing these.
