Pesky Plot Bunnies!

I've been working my tail off to get Wanted:Wife done before the kids get out of school this Friday!! I have 13,000 more words to go. Then its time for me to edit, edit, edit and hope my editor loves it.

Well, as some may recall, in September I wrote my first closed door sweet romance, Bidding Wars, which is currently in slush piles. I decided to make it a series, Love Strikes. I knew which character was next and the basic idea to the book. But then yesterday, BAM, the opening scene hit. 

What to do? I really want to finish Wanted: Wife. I opened a new word document and decided to write that opening scene to satisfy the darn bunny. And, the bunny played nice. Once I had the idea written down, it quietly went back to its corner and said, "Carry on with your other story."

"Thanks Bunny!"

My goal for Wanted:Wife is 50,000 words. I'm at 37,000 right now. And the BIG event is about to happen. You know, the game changer. The thing that splits up my couple and sends them in opposite directions. Then they have to find their way back to one another. I think I'm going to pass the 50k mark to be honest. I still have a lot that has to happen in my characters growth. Can I really do that in 13k? I guess I could, but it might be too rushed. Hopefully by Friday, I will know if I did or not.

So, off to write and get this story written. My goal is another 3-4k today! I can do it!
