My current MS is MG Fantasy, and I had to build not one world, but three (worlds within our world, even MORE fun, cause I had to figure out how to hide them). I kid you not, I researched for a year and a half--and when I started writing I STILL didn't know half of what I needed. But it's paid off, because all the little details I took the time to fine tune are what always get the most praise when CPs read it. So...I know it's a pain, but it's part of the process. And you'll be glad you did it in the end.Shannon Messengerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08003607156860716462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-76369220006862555172010-03-11T19:03:24.391-08:002010-03-11T19:03:24.391-08:00I just learned that I have to change the dessert m...I just learned that I have to change the dessert my MC bakes for her bff's dad bc a person getting chemo has a sensitive stomach and needs something light, not heavy brownies.

Some come easily, some are hard the whole way through.<br /><br />I know it can be discouraging, but you ARE still working on the book, even if you're not adding words.Lisa Schroederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10677227681455190084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-15239224469980627802010-03-11T14:54:20.865-08:002010-03-11T14:54:20.865-08:00It totally depends on the book.

Then I just write and when I get stuck I just put ????? and come back to it at a later date. It helps to just get the info I do know down and get the story started.Emily Marshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07073350248209507278noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-43452393521818033392010-03-11T14:45:11.627-08:002010-03-11T14:45:11.627-08:00On the books that have a historical element I do e...On the books that have a historical element I do enough research to get started. I fill in the gaps with more research and that usually inspires more story ideas and better description. But I don't think it ever truly stops until I feel like an expert on the subject.Laura Paulinghttp://www.laurapauling.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3318840210070768346.post-52122538944518401802010-03-11T09:17:51.596-08:002010-03-11T09:17:51.596-08:00Every book is different, right?

It's been much slower going than usual.<br /><br />But, hey, maybe this up-front research will save us revision time in the long run!Kate Fallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12856887940900664692noreply@blogger.com
