Well I know I've been quiet for a little while, but I have been reading through all my writing and trying to decide what to keep and what to get rid of. I have also spent much of the day resting as prescribed by my Doctor and believe it or not started writing. I went to a coffee shop, with 10 stamps on my loyalty card decided to enjoy a lovely large latte gratis.
Not only did I sit and enjoy a coffee, but I also put pen to paper and began jotting down some more ideas, when I eventually lifted my head from the notebook it was just before 3pm and time to fetch the kids. I did not realise until I looked back that I had written four full pages. In proper sentences with notes to annotate, add, and check information.
I read that writing a book is a full time job, God it would be great if that's all I had to do (I think). It would also be great if 4 pages of written script became 4 pages of typed script, but unfortunatley no. Maybe that's the disheartening thing that keeps me from actually completing a book. Now you'd say "type it straight away". I'd have to say NO! The words seem flow more effortlessly from a pen onto paper than tapping my fingers on a keyboard. It's strange isn't it. The other reason I am going to say NO! is because I can see it in my writing when I've got excited about an idea, yes my writing changes the pressure of the pen adjusts on the page and I can see when an idea is something I am not sure of because the writing on the page itself seems hesitant, lighter than the rest and more spaced out. So I guess it's just about keeping going, reading and researching and writing. ( The 3 R's in my quest for completion.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!)
In love and light.
