I did write a dancing scene at a demimonde party. So, I guess that's as close as I got. But everyone was barely dressed and covered in golden paint. Maybe not that close.... ;) You're welcome for the tag!Marnee Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533816213473440342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807276960105744379.post-76052392505399016542014-06-17T16:17:39.151-04:002014-06-17T16:17:39.151-04:00Hi Marnee!

And yes, I plan. A lot of times I don't even write much of my initial thoughts down. I just spend a lot of time staring at my navel. But, I have to feel right about the characters before I start. Once I get going, I'm going. But I need that initial navel gazing phase to get my head on straight.<br />Thanks for stopping!! :)Marnee Baileyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533816213473440342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807276960105744379.post-31451032757456924192014-06-16T20:35:45.785-04:002014-06-16T20:35:45.785-04:00Hey Marni!

Plot, GMC/character stuff, etc."…because I do the same thing, promptly followed by several sweeping changes during the redraft stage that equal rewriting about 75% of the book. Yep, that's me. The gal who writes every book at least twice. ;) <br /><br />So fun to read about your process and find another who uses storyboards (if you also use colored sticky notes, I'm convinced we're blood relatives!). Thanks for sharing, Marnee!<br /><br />BTW, I'm having trouble with the credentials, so just in case it doesn't show up, this is Marni. :) Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01366808288257905516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807276960105744379.post-16332172629388757512014-06-16T17:02:50.543-04:002014-06-16T17:02:50.543-04:00I simply love reading about process.

I love these blogs and have learned so much about my GH sisters this way.<br /><br />I have two fourteen year olds who read like the wind so the three of us have been reading tons and tons of YA and I've fallen in love with some of the more sci-fi type YA such as the Partials Sequence Trilogy by Dan Wells and the Under the Never Sky trilogy by Veronica Rossi. I can't wait until the kids are out of school and we can all read all day long!<br />Except for the part where I have a manuscript due to my agent and I have other real life adult things to do--but I can watch them read all day in the sun while drinking lemonade. :)<br /><br />Sharon Wrayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00406629926094415969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2807276960105744379.post-30738198732585042432014-06-16T15:47:34.499-04:002014-06-16T15:47:34.499-04:00Shelly - Nope, just got it the one time!
