My journey to completing my first novel |
I don't know what kind of funk I was in yesterday, today everything is clear and my goals lay before me, nearly within my grasp. I am not very patient and the waiting game is not one I play well, I tend to sit and actually wait which drives me up the wall as I don't like to be still unless it is whilst reading a good book. I like to have things to do, I don't make plans, I like to busy. Surprisingly I find myself looking forward to the weekend, I will be spending it in my own company with good books, good films and writing to my hearts content. Only things I will be doing is washing my car, which is in desperate need and a couple of visits to the gym. I am also giving up smoking tomorrow, so far this is not bothering me, I have decided to avoid all shops incase I end up eating far too much! I don't know why but my ideas seem to pop in to my head when I'm in bed about to fall asleep. Usually I think I'll remember that as I really don't want to get out of my nice comfy bed as I have to get up at 6am. Then the inevitable, by the morning, the idea is there but not all of it, I can't remember what it was that gripped me in the first place. So last night I made myself get up and pen it down and I'm glad I did. Come the morning the idea still felt fresh and it seemed as though whilst I slept the idea grew over night and was waiting for me in the morning. |
