I have been working on my new novel lately, and I have really thrown myself into it. I am trying to force myself to write a minimum of two pages a day. It doesn't matter if they are great pages or bad, as long as I write two pages, my work is done. I go back over each chapter several times to expand, so I can fix the bad pages as I go.

This is a very different writing style than I am used to. The trilogy was heavily based on the dialog spoken by the characters and was not as descriptive of their surroundings. This new novel, however, is very descriptive and I am taking copius notes about the world in which it takes place--something I've not done before.

I am also not limiting myself to any timeframe; when the book is done, it's done. I do not want to rush it at all. Which is, again, something completely new to me, considering each book in the last trilogy was written in a few days' time. I am taking it slowly for this novel though. Wish me luck!
