Plot

Still no closer to the 30 page outline that some of us are supposed to have *glowers at Sandy*. Still, another pantser isn't going to do me any harm, and who knows ... I could still come up with a solid plot before the off. Hmm.

In other news: there isn't any.

A short story, of the kind that could be expanded into a full novel at some later point?

Or indeed a song? Or a poem?

You've got creativity and the desire to use it - and I suspect these few weeks aren't a dry spot of inspiration, so much as a dry spot of inspiration for novelistic ideas.

So...maybe write something that isn't a novel, like a short story, with an eye on the story later becoming the first chapter of something big.

That's a very good point. I hadn't thought of it like that. Short stories I have no problem with - well, less problems with. ;)
