T/F if you start diverging from your plot points you have to keep diverging?
I say yes, to a certain extent, because once you start shifting, you have to diverge at least a bit more to be able to get back on track with what you had originally intended to happen next.
ex: in my novel "Crystal Blue" I had intended for the story to go more or less straight from Mora coming home to having dinner with the George's to her being at school. The addition of a snake and a fainting spell required me to add an extra scene because jumping straight to her at school would have confused everyone and not made much sense.
2: What genres do you write and what works have you released in each?
I write romance, in which genre i have released "Damsel in the Red Dress" and "A Dozen Morning Glories."
I write drama and slice of life, in which genre I published a short story called "Rain Dance."
I also write spec fic, in which I've published a story called "The First Time I Grew Wings" and am releasing "Crystal Blue."
