As some of my readers know, I’ve been working on a third Intrepid Force novel for a while now. As they might also remember, I was trying to combine a prequel and sequel into a single novel, but writing a story set in 2085 with flashbacks to both 1984 and 2007 turned out to be too much. I ended up splitting my one novel into two. I finished a draft of the sequel last summer, and have been struggling with the prequel. At the beginning of last summer, I had 340 pages written, but the pieces weren’t quite fitting together. I got a fresh shot of inspiration when I watched a Masterclass by the Duffer Brothers, the identical twins who wrote and directed Stranger Things. They talked about getting “lost in the woods” on their project and about the outlining process that got them out of it. Their advice turned out to be just what I needed to get unstuck. So stay tuned!
