Be Blogged and Blessed

by

Hello.  Hope all is well and you are safe.

Writing came along last night and i got to add to a small beat and it’s pretty much done. It could be added to the draft as is with me leaving it alone to cool off and seen with fresh eyes.

Now a bigger project for this story lingers.  I need to take the original file, copy it and begine the process of adding the newer content. I also need to take the handwritten content and type it out. That too gets added to tye story. 

Wr shall see what comes this endeavor. 

It reminds me of putting English, art history, and cinema papers together. It takes time and dedication. It is work, nonetheless. Fun work. Getting into those weeds can be something.  I love it.

Happy creative endeavors.

An Evening Post

by

Hello.  Hope all ia well ansnyou are safe.

Im lounging and it feels good.  I needed to distract myself from fiction. Why? Last night  Iwrite a quiet beat I loved. The day before that, two monologues for two separate characters. 

The first monologue I loved.  It fir the character ans helped me close out that character’s arc.  That beat went to cooldown.  i will evemtually reclaim and reqrite parts of it for clarity. 

The second monologue, I disliked and didnt know how it fit within the story or the character.  I was stumped. Yesterday was supposed to cool down and overnight I’d have a solution.

I didn’t.  I’ll figure it out.

Happy creative endeavors. 

Hello

Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.

Yesterday was a mixed bag of creativity. before other duties I made time to complete my journals, blog and do more writing for the novella. It was a smooth process, but not everything fit. I didn’t like some of the writing, and I said this will have to be left alone for a hot minute so I can unlock how they really work. In the meantime, I’ll work on other beats for this story or a different story altogether.

So morning has come and almost into afternoon. I had a late breakfast. Drinking my chilled coffee, and I realized I hadn’t blogged or written any fiction. I also went outside and did some things. It was a rather not too time-consuming affair.

At the moment, I feel a little frozen. iIt’s like this one little tie up is holding my creativity hostage. This is quite the momentum stall.

Happy creative endeavors.

Becoming

by

Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.

Dare I say I’m becoming a novelist?  I never called myself a novelist.  I’ve always been a writer – which is true.  I write all the time.  I write in multiple mediums. It’s always enjoyable to me.

That said this short story became a novella and still has more scenes not to fluff but to elaborate on characters and expand and close arcs that after time, I knew needed some definitive resolutions that weren’t present. 

That reminds me of how easy it is to fall in love with a draft. Almost romanticize and place it on a pedestal.  That said, this story needs work.  Lotsa work that I needed to put the time into developing. 

I have some handwritten pages mounted on a clipboard that I need to type and revise as well.  I did a tiny bit of that today. I have journals to complete and a blog post. 

I wonder if I’ll become a screenwriter or TV writer in definition as opposed to simply being a writer.  I do call myself a blogger.  I put in time for blogging.

Happy creative endeavors.



I’m Hungry

by

Hello.  Hope all is well and you are safe.

Last night I did some writing and rewriting.  I have ideas for a couple of arc closures and I need at least one character yo have some growth. Writing is being busy when you least expect to be busy.

This morning i added a few more lines to this reqrite and it looks much, much better. So, this is a strong scene that became stronger.  I can leave it be for now.

The text still has to be formatted and added to the main story.  I need a side folder for this.

Settled some insurance matters so that looks like a decent way to start in a day.  Did yardwork too.  Needless to say small wins make my day.

Im hungry now.  Its time for a meal besides a spoonful of pasta salad.  Let me get some food going.  Who knows it’ll make me write more. 

Happy creative endeavors.

This Day

by

Hello.  Hope all is well and you are safe.

This day started with errands and to my surprise, I stepped outside to some of the coolest weather we’ve had in a while.  Not a trace of humidity. Quite breezy with a slight chill. 

Writing has been super brisk.  Admittedly  I didn’t want to do anything.  I’ve been trying to relax all day. I have to contact my insurance and get their definitive answers on a few things that are totally vague. 

I do plan at least five sentences of something before I go to bed. I don’t want filler. My novella surprisingly had positive additions to it so far.  I’ve added some richer content, elaborated scenes, and the stories and characters grew. This is a great thing. 

I think five sentences isn’t ask9ng for too much.  I’ll even hand write them to keep them fresh. 

As always, happy creative endeavors.

Eye Exam Day

by

Hello, I hope all is well and you are safe.

Today is eye exam day and this is taking far longer than I prepared for.  However it is good to remember that expectations can change. We shall see how this goes. 

I did some writing yesterday. The journals, blog, and writing for the novella. I need to keep up the momentum.  This has become a noteworthy challenge in writing, as I like that there is constant evolving. 

Writing gives me a lot of energy and joy.  Its not a surprise we do well. Wrote a dad of content.  I’ll write a little more before bedtime.

Happy creative endeavors.


Here We Are

by

Hello.  Hope all is well and you are safe.

Yesterday started with an iced latte, pen, paper and the hopes of writing. I completed my journals and blog posts. It was the best mood and mode a writer could have when it comes to new content.

The process started out smooth.  I wanted to elaborate on a possible scene for the novella and then the words poured out.  It was a great time. I need to let those pages chill for a while because I need to type them out into a Word doc soon. 

So today I’m doing this blog post, work on the journals, then onto more handwriting.  I have an idea or two that can use some elaboration.  I did have a lot of interruptions.  While I got my writing in, sessions seemed brief and less fun.

Any writing is good writing. Maybe this is perfect for a quieter creative time.

As always, happy creative endeavors. 


No Iced Latte Today

by

Hello.  Hope all is well and you are safe.

Yesterday. I had myself another iced latte and writing session.  Got the journals, blog, and fiction writing done.

The journals were straightforward.  I write a gratitude and life journal. The blog is also straightforward.  The fiction writing was for the novella.  I did follow through with a few ideas for scenes.  At one point I needed a description for one of the characters.  It helped me see him better.

The rest poured out.  Some dialog and descriptions that added to previous characters and made them a little better. 

That said between yesterday and today I need to make time to type these scenes out and also let them cool down.  Part of me feels this story is evolving past what I created as the first draft.

As for now.  I rewrote some dialog for a scene.  I’ll do more.  Possibly handwrite it out.  No iced latte. Just coffee. 

Happy creative endeavors.
