Brain overload
Well hell, Start writing, editing and submitting and it’s like Ghost Whisperer out there. Every damn character I’d thought of already and some new have harkened the doorway of my mind, asking when I’m gonna write their story. Uh, sure, I’ll get on that.
Right now I’m toying with the story I promised my neice I’d write. She’s…. about 10 (yeah, I know. but she lives 4 states away and I see her once a year). Anyway I toyed with the idea and found it’s pretty freakin’ tough to shift down to that reading level and ignore all the voices telling me I can’t do this or that because it’s not historically correct. I’m making it more paranormal than I’d anticipated, but that gives me that breathing room my inner editor needs. Usually that bitch is sound asleep. Cracks me up I’d have issues with this story.
Funny thing is, as I write this kids story, I realize how damn much potential it has for subsequent books. Yeah. Go on, muse, laugh it up, ya shit-covered fuzzball. I’ll lock you back in the basement you keep it up.
Er, sorry. had a mental lapse there for a minute. The nascar story has been sent and I check email with a bit of fear these days. Of course, of course, of course, once I hit send, I can think of several places I’d like to get in and could notch up tension or make it better. *enter dramatic eyeroll* Does this happen to other writers or just me?
Anyway, just to keep this blog on the map, thought I’d update ya’ll with proof I am insane, and alive and well. Figuratively speaking. Happy reading!
