I know I have a few writer friends that visit here from time to time and I was wondering - how are you doing? What have you got in the works right now? I have just spent an entire day writing (well almost - at one point I had to go out and buy cat food), but once I was at my computer again I was having a grand time.

For some time now, I have been working on a book called Finding Claire. Oh, the troubles Claire has caused me. She and her friends have refused to behave and they are just now starting to cooperate. I thought I would be done this book in October, but it is taking longer than I thought. But today I woke up with so many ideas in my head I couldn't contain them. I love it when that happens!

But it got me thinking - how many of you, use outlines? Do you find it helpful? I have tried countless times to outline my books before I start to write, but I get so antsy to get started that I always give up!

I am and always will be a write first ask questions later kind of gal. How about you?
