How do you feed your plotbunnies?

[GrantBricksly]

I rarely work on more than one piece at the same time... I tried once... But then when I went back for editing I found characters and locations from story a, in story b, and vice versa. My plot bunnies had migrated and cross propagated.
It was a mess.

That being said I do often have plot bunnies come to visit. So I'll write them down and tuck them away in my bunny farm. And when I'm ready for a new project, I'll go looking for one that's ready for fattening.
If I get stuck on a story, my plot bunny is sick...so I'll bring it to my farm for a while to heal and get better.

Right now, as I regularly fight myself to get productive on stories, I bounce between stories, to see if I can get one to catch me. Or I spend too much time in AH.

When I swap to a new story, I re-readwhat I have already read of it, making some edits. This seems to clear my head enough to not intermingle. Or I can talk about one of the stories I am trying to write as a plot point in another, like I just did in the one that is debuting tomorrow.

How do you feed your plotbunnies?

I feed them through the wood chipper ... my keyboard.

Problem is the scattered bunny bits regenerate into new and more aggressive bunnies that take me in directions I've never gone.
