Romance or adventure?

Ok, so I'm planning for the next novel and I can't decide weather to start a romance novel, a thriller, romance or an adventure, fantasy based of course with a hint of romance.

It's hard, the romance novel I'm quite excited about, it's a rather tongue in cheek, crew based romance or a heart wrenching warm romance between two people with a sad past. I do like the idea of both, and I will write them but I can't decide.

Then with the adventure, it's just too exciting not to write, I did want to make it my nano novel but I didn't really want to rush it. This one I have been thinking about for months, I have the entire plot planned and mapped out you see. I want to make it the best it can be.

So, you can see my dilemma my dears, I have too many novels I am excited to write.  You have to understand, when I'm excited about writing a book scene or entire series, I really want to write it there and then.  Of course life and duties call and I can't sit and write 24/7. That would be my dream of course, tend to life duties and then write for the rest.  

This won't be the first romance novel I have written, well the first pure romance novel, I always add a hint of romance here and there. Sometimes a strong feeling of love between the characters make the story seem pure romance, but I tend to have some kind of heart ache or disaster ruin it or make that road to love harder. Where as, adventure, fantasy based will be easy, that's my strong genre, as I'm sure you know by now. 

I guess it's always a good idea to do something new whe. It comes to your craft, like with the pure comedy.  I wrote it, I survived it and I hated it. I think I will stick to adding hints of humour instead of trying another pure comedy.

So does anyone have any thoughts? Maybe the fantasy, but then again the crew romance it's different, meaning imwill be writing naughty parts, not too heavy, but naughty none the less.  Let's say, there's more than just kissing.....and I'll leave it at that.

Have a wonderful Christmas my lovies and a happy new year!!!

Ok....Pure Comedy...not my thing really

Hello everyone,

I am happy and not so happy to report that I have finished Paranormally Haunted, its not as long as i thought but it will do as a novel.

Its good because, yeah I finished story number two in the challenge, 2 down and 10 to go!!! but the pooh thing is that i don't really like it, i was writing it and even I was getting a little bored, don't get me wrong i really like Desmond and Boris, but the story just did not do it for me.  Paranormal investigations are, somewhat dull to write until you get to the haunting parts, and it was only really funny when Boris came along.

I did have an idea, I am thinking of doing a spin off, the diary of Boris, the un dead story of Boris, that kind of thing, then i can make it as crazy as I like and because He's dead there is no limits.

So, here's my thought's on my writing pure comedy.  I'm not good at it, verbally i like to think im quite funny, i make people laugh, but to write those funny things down and add them to a story, gosh.  Its hard.  At least now I can say I have written a comedy and even though I don't really like it, I'm sure there is some one out there who will like it.

What I am think is this, I will set up a new Wattpad account just for these novels and post the link here, so I can post the finished stories up there after I finish editing them.  my plan is to have a rest from hard writing for hours after Nicholas is sleeping.  its Christmas and I have so much left to do so I'm sure you will understand if i use the rest of december for the holidays.  but I will post updates on the next novel, I'm undecided, maybe Romance, maybe a fantasy?  I will have a think.

Now, one more thing, check out my best friends blog too if you love the written word.  its called, A SLAVE TO THE WRITTEN WORD  go and check it out for me :D

MErry Christmas and Tatty bye my lovies

I just had to introduce......Boris

Hello my lovies,

So, I just had to introduce Boris.  He is one of a top characters for sure.

Boris doesn't need a surname, he's like Madonna, once you know who he is, all you'll need is his name.  
Boris is a ghost, a drunken, rowdy, ghost who no ghost wants to be around. They always send him away at the AGM's, no one wants to haunt with him, poor Boris. He just wants a good time really,  he is always drunk, he died drunk, he's spends all his undead life drunk and has no intention to sober up.
He really is the Ghosts secret weapon, they don't really want to use him,they don't even like him in the same house let alone give him free run of the house. 
Boris loves to boast how he punched polar bears in the face, he always adds a Bally well in his sentences and is a sex maniac! He loves insulting people.

I love the ghost, I am seriously considering writing his own mini series, the un dead chronically of Boris!!! Whoohoo!

Have a lovely week guys and gals

Do stories really need chapters all the time?

Hello everyone,

There has been this thought going through my head as I write an new idea down today.  Do stories really need chapters? I mean, I really like chapters, it's a poop sometimes naming them, but I do like them.
Yet, as I write Paranormally Haunted I wonder, how can I name them? It's a live show you see, I had the idea of naming them after what part of the show they at recording.  For example, when they do pieces to camera, the walk around, possessions etc.

But what do you think as readers? Are chapters and names important?  I think they are, I just have these random thoughts sometimes.  Haha!

Tatty bye my lovies!

Paranormally Haunted

So, it's the next novel, I have been planning this story with my brother for the passed few months.  You see, there is an interesting story behind this.....well story.

It all started when my brother Marcus and I was talking about random stuff while watching Most Haunted.  He would always take the pee put of Derek you see and was very good at it, I almost peed myself with laugher.  He later asked me to write some kind of movie script for him, but in the end it just didn't happen for some reason.  But in all honesty I really liked the character he created through fun, imjust had to make a novel and so Desmond O'Cora was born.  Marcus has full credit for him, he's so funny at times he doesn't even know it.
From this one character I created the idea of a paranormal investigation, then I wanted it to be funny, so after many ideas being thrown around I made the story I'm going to write.  

Now this story is written by me, from a movie idea from Marcus but collaborated together, so it's odd really, he's given me ideas and a cool character, and I have taken those mad ideas from the both of us and created Paranormally Haunted!!!

Because I want it to be funny and a surprise I don't want to give away the plot, but I will give some character profiles to wet your taste buds.  I do hope this turns out ok, I have never written a pure comedy before, I always add the odd slap stick humour and funny bits, but pure funny? Pooh, what a challenge!

On a lighter side, I put my Christmas tree up, it looks so lovely, I love Christmas trees I really do.

Have a lovely week everyone, 

Tatty bye
