E is for Everything, Empty and Elusive (A-Z Challenge)

It's day 5 of the A-Z Blogging challenge - also known as day E. So here it goes.

E is for Everything, as in it's going to take everything within me to get my next novel done on time. 

E is also for Empty, because I'm empty of ideas. There's nothing in my head right now for book. Nothing. No names, no plots, no scenes . . . completely empty. 

E is for Elusive. Authors know that sometimes characters write themselves. They direct your fingers and tell you what they want to happen to them (and sometimes to others). But my non-existent characters are being completely elusive. 

It's a bit chilly outside today, so I think I will make me a cup of hot chocolate, prop my feet up, read a few blogs posts from others that are participating in the blog challenge, and see if I can get some inspiration from it.  In the meantime, here is where you can find my other A-Z posts:

Twitter's a great place to brainstorm for stories. I'm always willing to chew the fat.

I have 2 draft novels that I'm trying to edit and over 20 other storylines I've come up with over the past 4 years that I can't wait to write. While writing your other books did you get ideas that took a back seat?

I am at a complete and utter creative block. Sad but true. Lynne! Only if I had 20 story lines in my head!!!
