...of course, I also realize it's silly of me-in-particular to be worrying about this right now when the real problem is Finish A Novel Any Novel Worth Not Burning. ^_^
Funny thing, though -- ask any writer at the right (or wrong) point in a manuscript that's already been sold and they'll tell you the Exact Same Thing <wry g>. As in the burning part.
I think I would like to cultivate diversity in my ability, though. Which probably means cultivating the ability to write things longer than 1000 words, right now. *rueful look*
I experiment a bit with diversity in the short pieces -- with the most out there probably being either "Elegy" or "How to Kill and Immortal" -- but I admit that, given the majority of my output has been in one universe with a zillion viewpoints, I haven't tried to diversify much in the novels recently <g>. Although, come to think, the Luna novel is very different, but it's also a Sagara novel.
