second novel gets under way

today she is taking a step into the blogger sphere!
after celebrating yet another mind boggling sign post birthday I am stepping into the computer age with my first blog!
I will be posting my progress on my second psychological suspense novel, Murder in the Gun Room - I am up to chapter five and am amazed at how different the process is second time around - before it was just free flow, the story wrote itself
now I am so much more concerned with structure, trying to keep everything tight and connected without losing the spontaneous evolving story spell, which is the way I write best
am interested in how other writers approached their second works

have spent the summer (thank goodness for teacher summers!) re reading all my favorite mysteries
