After bouncing ideas around in my brain for a couple months & rereading several Baum books & my own dark Oz books, going to start writing book 3. No title yet but I know the gist of it & have the 1st 3 chapters more or less in mind. #TeamPantser #amWriting
Not able to concentrate on writing today. Warm day, windows all open, sleepy af. Think I'll pick my research reading back up and let the next chapter slosh around in my gray juices for a few days more. #TeamPantser
