Believe it or not, "Free", my 95,000 word novel I pitched to a publishing company two months ago, was originally a fan fiction story. Originally, the story was about this girl named Lauren and her big brother Nick, and how they argued all the time and how Lauren gets injured and Nick got a second chance to be a better brother. It ended up that Lauren's story went through a gazillion changes- first, her name became Laura, and instead of three brothers she ended up with six, then I changed the time period, then I made a foreign army invade during the story (she even got brainwashed in one version! :P) then I gave her sisters, then I changed the foreign army, then I made it that she was a child when they invaded, then I changed everyone's name... the list goes on. Overall, "Free" went through TWELVE revisions until I got to the version I have now. So don't be surprised if that first draft ends up in a totally different direction by the time you're done- it will happen and it's fun! Enjoy the journey, it's a blast to see where your characters take you!<br />:D<br />Thanks for commenting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04907062710630466969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835028355736772216.post-1123686549474136862015-06-04T18:17:31.011-07:002015-06-04T18:17:31.011-07:00Oh, now I can't wait until that story!

B-) I love finding out how the book came into being and the process the author went to get there. So I find backstories fun to write, too. :)<br /><br />Ah, a character's background. Now that's fun. You can totally derail your story if you change a character's background. It's so much fun! :D I wonder if that would be from your Big Valley stories... :)<br /><br />Thanks for commenting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04907062710630466969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835028355736772216.post-29076723960372822012015-06-03T08:03:26.138-07:002015-06-03T08:03:26.138-07:00I love hearing back stories!

I don't know how much everyone will like it. I guess I keep getting super excited about it and then super nervous. ;)<br /><br />Haha, I have seemed to notice how you change your stories up. I like that about you, you're very open to new ideas. And I know all about those endings where you don't know how to end! Haha, I'm having that problem right now. :) Characters often change a story, that's for sure. They develop and change and make the plot go a totally different direction than we originally expected. :) I love characters! I think yours are probably hijacking the computer while you're asleep. I can attest that they do this. ;)<br /><br />Thanks for sharing and commenting!

I have tons of them. :)<br /><br />I think all writers change scenes and sometimes plots. Oftentimes characters change when we're writing them and therefore change the story. Thanks for sharing, Jesseca. :)<br /><br />We'll see when I get to those character spotlights. I hope to, but I'm not sure I will. :)<br /><br />Thanks for commenting!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04907062710630466969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5835028355736772216.post-58447553152734422862015-06-02T20:05:11.397-07:002015-06-02T20:05:11.397-07:00Oh mannn...y'all better hurry up with this sto...Oh mannn...y'all better hurry up with this story! I really, REALLY want to read it!!! :P I change my stories all the time...in fact, in Alice & Alyssa I just added a completely different ending to the story with one plot twist. You'll read it I'm sure... B-) So now I'm frantically figuring how on earth I'm going to get the book ended! Lol! :D Have you ever felt like your characters act by themselves and write the book while you're asleep? I've had that suspicion a couple of times during these last few weeks.

B-)<br />I've changed my stories quite a bit. I've never actually changed the whole plot, but I change individual scenes all the time! Sometimes the changes are hardly noticeable, sometimes they're completely different! :D <br />I loved the post! I can't wait for the character spotlights! :)Jesseca Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03248251614365079067noreply@blogger.com
