I look forward to learning about the programs in January and February 🙂 This is my first PiBoIdMo. I’m super excited!
Tara will be mentioning the other programs, I’m sure. If not, I’ll be happy to let you know of them.
Thank you!
How fun and challenging…so that just got my head spinning. I come up with “book ideas” all the time but I don’t write them down. On this challenge do you give the whole storyline or just an idea, title?
You can add as much detail as you want. Mostly I write down keywords that will help me remember the idea later. One example is “ABC book, spell out numbers from languages around the world, kindergarten school/library audience.” Or “birthday party for long distance grandma” kind of thing. Maybe even “Pumpkins.” I don’t start writing or researching any of it because it’s supposed to be more brainstorming, less fleshing out of ideas. If I’m on a creative roll I don’t force myself to stop…but in those (rare?) cases I try to open up a manuscript I’m already working on, I mean, no sense shutting off the lightbulb.
If you’re gonna go for it (do it! do it!), don’t cross off any idea you come up with, no matter how off the wall it may seem. Who knows, it might lead you to a better idea later on.
