Small Good Things Are Better
When I'm trying to do something big... say... write a novel, it can be too big and I just don't do it. This is the case with an epic trilogy that I have been poking at for seven years. I've completed many other small projects since the seed of that epic space trilogy came to me, and if I tally up the word counts for all those other projects, it's very clear that I could have written that space trilogy. But... in the past I have tried to take it all on at once, at least mentally, as a trilogy . Which, to say kindly and in an effort not to shame my past self, was a mild sort of insanity. :) You may have been in that kind of mild insanity too. If you did, I believe you had valid reasons for it, as I did. But... valid reasons or not, it didn't get us the results we wanted. At least, it didn't work for me. To date my space trilogy is still not finished. I forget that it's okay to do small things. In fact, I think the only things I really can do are small things
