Tuesday Morning from The Cottage of Blog

The Cottage of Blog

Good morning from The Cottage of Blog. It's time for our coffee discussion, group whining session, and our decisions as to what to do about it.

Whining sessions are good, great even, if it gets you out of your block or stagnantion or a really bad plot line.

Legacy is fine (I think) up to the point where I have my heroine kidnapped. Now, as I'm concocting ways in and out of this, I'm thinking would Elena put herself in that postion? No matter how mad she is at the hero? Granted, her static trait is to walk out during uncomfortable positions. ie--she walks out when Uncle Gregory talks marriage and she thinks Alex dated her only because his parents wanted to arrange a marriage--whe walks out when she discovers his "dark secret" that he's an FBI agent. So, she goes down to the bar and discovers the silver cross with red rubies worn by Mikhail. the cross on the neck of the boy in her visions. She's now convinced that Mikhails Alex's son.
So, now that she's found out Alex's secret, she throws her dark secret at Alex in form of some letters. That she'd married Jan while she was carrying Alex's child. Why? Because (dejuvu) she didn't think he loved her. (there are reasons.)

So" what would you do if you were said heroine.

A. Go out into a gove of trees in the back of the inn to think things through and get kidnapped?

B. Take Mikhail upstairs with you and confront Alex with his son?

C. Talk to Mikhail and learn that he knows where the heroin is being store in the castle in which case you'd:

1. Take Mikhail in the middle of the night with just a flashlight (and withoug these FBI jerks who think you're part of a dark onspiracy) and find the heroin, only to get caught by the bad guys.

2. Tell the said FBI agents (one who's your husband and you're very mad at him) and have them push you aside while they send in their troops to confiscate heroin and raid the castle.

3. Other? Did I tell you there's a ghost from christmas past (er) from heroine's past running around?

Any ideas? this is the place to brain storm. Come talk to me.

Anyone want my ideas on anything? Please ask. I can't guarantee I'll have all the answers, but God knows I have enough craft books. I should be able to get you one.

Today I replot starting with when heroine finds her son.

You might find my word counter going backwards today.

That's all from The Cottage of Blog where the coffee's always fresh and the conversation's writing.
