If you don't have a dream, how are you going to make a dream come true? |
I have a secret: I've started writing again. I was afraid to mention it loudly for fear of jinxing myself. I haven't written new fiction or poetry in such a long time; it's ridiculous, really. Then recently I just got this overwhelming desire to write. Of course, I didn't know what to write... so I entered a few contests. I've created a folder just for this new writing because it really doesn't belong with the old stuff (writing from 2007 and back. Seriously, it's been too long!). If you're interested, look here: "New stuff - 2009" [E] I added 4 items in the last month! A very short story (736 words) about a girl on a bus, written for The Writer's Cramp.
A poem from an addict's POV
A poem, for The Writer's Cramp
Dark & tragic supernatural/horror short story (1242 words) written for the WYRM Gauntlet Challenge I forget sometimes how much joy writing can bring. Sure, it's frustrating and difficult, but it's also fun. I hope I keep it up. I'm planning on doing "October Novel Prep Challenge" and NaNo, of course. I think I just had to get the ball rolling. Hopefully now I'll just keep on writing and writing and writing. |
