I would love to have an original topic to work with, but my brain is still in "search" mode, and nothing is coming up on the page. I suppose that might require that I change something about my life... which I may be close to doing... but I want to wait until I've actually done it before I try writing about it... we shall see.
I love writing. Everything from the sound of the keys to the gentle transformation of words from brain to fingers to page. Half the time I feel like someone else is writing for me, as if these aren't even my thoughts. The muse takes over, and all I have to do is what it tells me, and new life is born. Sovereignty is beautiful and terrifying.
I am trying to write a children's book. Harder than it looks, let me tell you. I have a fantastic title, but that's as far as I've gotten with it so far. I've actually started at least a dozen writing projects recently, with high hopes, and no follow-through. I guess that's a step up from not starting them at all... I guess.
I have a lot of questions that still remain unanswered. I suppose we all do. I still don't know if I'm supposed to conjure up a story through my stress and anxiety and never-ending self doubt, or if one day it will just come to me... and things will never be the same...
I still get up every single morning, and long for the answer...
About Me:
- Jo
- Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States
- I'm 25, still feeling the effects of college, just trying to figure out life and get the bills paid. I want to be a full-time, published writer but don't have a clue how to do it yet, so I write every day and hope eventually something will come out that's worth sending to a publisher. I thought a blog might be a good place to start getting some of my thoughts out for a public audience.
