I was told that a good writer writes every day. I try really hard to write every single day. I worry that as I head back to school for the fall semester I won't find the time. Writing means a lot to me even if no one ever appreciates it. It's cathartic to say the least and expressive to say the most. I have been thru a lot in my 36 years and it would make for some juicy reads but I am not quite ready to spill those beans. I prefer to insert a little of myself in every story I write (unlike Sister Souja) I won't be putting my whole self in my stories.
It's funny I feel like my female characters while flawed are better than me. They are the strong women I want to meet and be around and hope to become. They are intensely passionate, educated, and aware! Their Achilles Heel is usually "Love" a weakness most of us are in denial of possessing. No one wants to admit they are looking for the ONE!
Is that a weakness now? Or worse have we all given up or given in and settled? Oh the horror of that scenario. I refuse to give up on love even though I had to admit to today while talking to my sister there was two tops, men in the state of Michigan I could ever see myself being happy with. However the timing is so off that I think a change of location is in order. The Michigan population is 9,883,640 and I can only name 2 men who I could potentially see myself with TRAGIC!
I guess for now I can write about love and live vicariously thru my imagination and fantasies...
WHAT'S YOUR FANTASY?
