Be Afraid To Give Up, Not To Fail by Author Wilmar Luna

This week's guest post is with Wilmar Luna, author of The Silver Ninja series. I am very pleased to have Wilmar guesting on this blog as very early on when I started The Eternal Scribbler blog, he reached out and sent me a very kind and supportive message which meant a lot.  Especially as I had been struggling and was not even sure if I should keep the blog going. This will actually be a 2 parter post as Wilmar also answered some interview questions and I'll be posting them tomorrow, so do check back!

How To Stay Focused When Story Ideas Invade

I've talked about ideas before - you may remember my post How to grow great ideas from the Muses.  However, I want to discuss the invasion of story ideas. 

I don't know about you, but my Muse doesn't wait until I've finished a novel before she bashes me over the head with another idea...or five.

So how do you manage to stay honest to your current story while other ideas are tantalisingly waving at you from the side-lines?
