I've found this with my current - my main current (somehow I've managed to have three on the boil at the moment) - fiction project, as it started off with a simple idea that would take about 2k words, and now it's 7k words, and still growing, starting to look like a novella! I must learn some self-control.
But that's the point, isn't it - the point of writing fiction. It's about self-discovery - well, mostly about self-discovery - that and just having fun, having fun finding bits - good bits, funny bits, nostalgic bits, poignant bits, sad bits, human bits. Ahhh, there's always so much left to be said.
Just thought I'd share that. For what it's worth.
Cheers...
