Book Ideas

I've been getting ideas for books, but I'm stuck on the stuff I'm working on now. There's a lot of stuff going on these days, the holidays are coming up, so now I've gotta juggle buying Christmas gifts, possible family getaways, bills, endless research reading, the occasional sentence worth or progress I can add to whatever story I'm working on, and a partridge in a pear tree. 2016 seems to be the Year of the Grey Hair. Its either endless traffic and work, or trying to rest and catch up on sleep from everything, and not getting enough done everywhere. I'm optimistic in some regards because I managed to get 3 different book ideas this weekend. There's a lot to digest because there's a bunch of ideas, and research to do. I say a bunch, but I'm actually too sure how much I'll have to do. About 90% of the things I'm working on are fiction, but a few things need to sound mildly technical. Sometimes you have to sound like you know what you're talking about especially if you don't know what you're talking about. You have to get wordy when you're trying to sound technical, as opposed to say murder mysteries, or thrillers, where you only have to sound techie maybe when you're trying to solve a crime at the end of a novel. I'm trying to make even the format of certain books part of the storytelling, so I'm trying to do subtle things, but it takes a while. It took me a year and a half for one novel, and the thing wasn't even that long. I'm not trying to write for length though, you just have to go till the story is told.
