What I'm going to do differently with "Notorious: The Ballad of Candy Cane Brenner"

OK, so now that I've gone through everything that went wrong with "Notorious: The Ballad of Candy Cane Brenner", I now have the tools to correct those mistakes and make some much-needed changes to the story.

One of the changes is that the story is about a young pop star who never really got the chance to grow up; her career tanked, not because of what she had done, but because she lived in a country that liked to keep their celebrities as children instead of the adults those young pop stars should have become. (No wonder why most of them go crazy in their 20s!)

Also, her connection to several celebrities will be explored, yet the story of Mimi Johnson is a minor subplot that won't be explored until Candy goes to Arizona.

With that in mind, I'm ready to begin the story again. But I can't do anything about it now because November is coming and I have to get ready for NaNoWriMo. But I'll start again in January.
