Oh Asimov. I love his science fiction and how he could write almost anything not matter how implausible and still get away with a good yarn.
You have my sympathy. I know that I'd like to be writing in the original fantasy universe I've been tooling around in for years, but I just don't have what it takes (skills, understanding, the story) to write that...
On the other hand, I have made progress on the YA novel and it's better for the practice I've put in. So I feel pretty good working on that story instead even if the other is still dear to me. My thought is that the epic stuff will benefit from what I learn toiling through the YA novel.
Haha, maybe it'll make the epic less, well, epic and more manageable? Who knows.
*wry grin* I know that I don't quite have the discipline that jomk mentions. That's why I need the day job... soon.
