I began writing my book in July and I have high hopes for its publication. It was first just a short story, but then the characters wouldn’t stop talking to me. (No I’m not crazy) They told me that they wanted their story told. So I’m using a pen and paper—literally—to tell their side. I think that my imagination would spark any fiction fanatic’s interests. I like the fact that you can escape to an imaginary world and create characters that have characteristics of real people but also cater to the supernatural world. I love the possibilities of future events and dormant powers lying within the unsuspecting person. I think that when writing you have to also be mindful of change. You can ‘t always have the typical love story and then expect the HEA (Happily Ever After). Sometimes things don’t end happily. Sometimes they end in disaster and you have to work from there. Then sometimes two fall in love but then they have a great incident that pushes them to fall in love with other characters. It may piss the reader off, but they still want to know what happens in the end.
The Paranormal world is more of what I love. There are so many ways to entice a reader and keep their interest and making them not want to stop reading. I think that I have a very broad imagination which I give all thanks to the millions of films I’ve seen and hundreds of books that I’ve read. Not gonna lie, reading has not really been on my to-do list.
I am currently reading J.R. Ward’s Black Dagger Brotherhood and I must be honest, I am so in love with this series that I can’t help but re-read the books over and over again. Ward has a way of writing that keeps you consumed by her characters. She has the ability to write three stories in one book while still keeping the main story at the forefront. And I admit I am taking notes. She has a way with words that makes my emotions come out. Now that’s deep!...LOL…She’s a great writer and I hope to have followers like I follow her works.
This entry is about my writing and what I plan to accomplish the up and coming year, 2010
