Firemeboy:
So, I've got my next book basically worked out in my head.  The first chapter is all ready to be written.  The only thing stopping me is...  I just don't want to.

Did any of the other authors feel like this after publishing their first book?  I read on the other forums that Rob and Brandon are working on other things, Rob just got his third book in, and is probably working on yet another project.  They are cruising.

And I for the life of me can't bring myself to start anything.

Is this normal or am I just a freak?  Well, I'm probably a freak, but is this a normal behavior, or is it freakish behavior?

Who knows...

I'm not an author, but if it helps I'm the same way with everything.  I'll have a great idea for a flash animation or a short story, for example, and I'll plan the whole thing out, but I just don't want to actually make it, which is essentially the same situation you are in.  I guess if it is freakish behavior, I'm in the same boat.

Spriggan:
I'm the same way with Flash and Webcodeing, I usealy spend so much time prepareing things that I loose intrest or sometime just don't feel like doing the project.  Of course my biggest problem is I don't finish things becaue of various reasons.

Firemeboy:
I am like that in other areas as well.  I know a little bit about a whole lot of programs, because I like to play around, but quickly get bored.  Usually I set a goal to do something, do it, and then I'm finished with it.  Whether it's doing a flash animation, or messing around with digital video, once I've learned the basics, and finished the little project, I want to move on to other things...

Who knows, maybe this will be my only book.  I think if I were to pick something to do next, it would to be involved with making a movie.

Peter Ahlstrom:
Why did you write the book in the first place? Is it because you wanted to write a book? Or because you wanted to be a writer? Or did aliens force you to do it?
