ha! told you so

What did I tell you? A couple of hours after I whined about being stuck on my plot for Blackmailed into Bed, an idea popped into my head...just the way I knew it would. :-) I wasn't even thinking about the story at the time, but--boom!--there it was.

That seems to be how all the best ideas come to me. If I'm actively concentrating on trying to come up with something, my brain gets stage fright & clams up. But if I go on with my life & get busy doing something routine, my brain relaxes & starts working again.

And this new idea is just about perfect, if I do say so myself. It solves my "too short" problem, as well as giving me a way to introduce the heroine's sister, whom I'd like make the heroine of the next book, if at all possible. Yay!

Now I just have to incorporate the new stuff into my synopsis, but that shouldn't be too hard. I'm betting I'll have it done before I go to bed tonight. Maybe even before NCIS comes on. :-)
