Got an idea for an interesting story from my game. This family (daughter Mary J) moves to a small town and saves it and its economy by turning the town into a marijuana producing mecca. Kind of a touchy subject but it could be set just after it became legal....

Not much else happened today. It was rainy and windy for most of the day. Didn't do diamond painting. Didn't do much reading or writing (other than that idea). Slept most of the day.

My bird died. Ivory was laying in the bottom of the cage. The birds had no water. So now I'm down to three. I started out with five. Ivory gets to go be with Odin now. it stings a little but I consider her a victim of the hot weather we have been having.

May write more later



Spent four and a half hours reading. I should have stopped after two but I was waiting for my night meds. At least that is the excuse I used. Honestly I was enjoying reading and I didn't want to stop and go in the bedroom to stare blankly at the story I'm trying to work on.

Stephen King says you should start with a small goal of 1000 words per day. This should be able to be accomplished in the two hours you set aside for writing Monday through Friday and one hour on Saturday and Sunday. You are, of course, allowed to take one day off a week.
He also says you should read all the time. At least he doesn't say you have to read what you write. I do that and I get discouraged. Mr. King says you should be able to find books that leave you saying "I can write3r better than that." at least once in a while. Leaves me things to ponder.

Right now I am still wide awake even though it is now Wednesday. My hair is down and I am going to turn my music on and try to get some rest. If I wake during the night, which I invariably do, I will try to get myself to write. I think two handwrittten pages (front and bsck) is a good place to start again.





Well, I have woken up twice now and haven't written anything. I was playing my game. I'm hopeless.

I'm going to go try to give my story a once over before I lay back down.
