Which way to go?



Hallehluja it is FridayJ! Even though I still have to work all weekend the fact that it is Friday keeps me one foot above ground. Weather has been generous providing us with sun and warm. And I haven’t had to force myself to write something. I sit down and words just flow taking me to places I didn’t consider to go. My novel have reached a point where it just comes out but something in emotional level doesn’t add up so I’m thinking about going back to my sketch board or read more about plotting.
 My characters do something unexpected and not sure if I should let the carry on or try to move them in another direction. Or maybe it is just me realizing that April is knocking on my doors and again I’m wondering in which direction I ‘m heading. However, I have hit my 12 000 words. It seems like nothing it is like one tenth from a novel but it is as far as I have got with one of my ideas. And I’m still determinate to stick with it.
I just finished a memoir “No Easy Road” by Patsy Whyte. Deep and moving as I find most of memoirs. I like to read them because I don’t know a better way to get into people’s heads understand what they are feeling and thinking, what drives them. The language is really nice too. Ending even though very good written- left me unsettled. I was waiting to see life turning around, sun shining, hope rising instead it left with m with going into unknown. But then again life tends to be this way- with no certainty. Definitely good book to read if not for writing reasons then for simple humanity. How much harm can do us not knowing…
Anyway for those who do read my posts, thanks for that! I appreciate it!
