Stuff. I like stuff. Stuff can be fun. Stuff can be cluttering. So what stuff am I talking about? Writing stuff. I now have my author Facebook page. I now have a Twitter account, and I now have a website. What other stuff do I need. I need a good story.
I'm not liking how Pete and Virgil is coming along. I'm now sure why. It doesn't seem fun. Of course, the adventure they are having is not really fun, but I thought there would be more comedy in the story. I want more comedy in the story. It's just not there yet. I'm going to finish it, set it aside for a bit, and look at it again. I did that with Fat Farm. I started that story 20 different times in 20 different ways before I liked what I wrote. The whiney baby in me wants it to be right, right now. It's going to take work and then I'll like it.
I kind of want to work on Simon and the Sweet Pea Root now instead of Pete and Virgil. I have the original hard copy with all the edits and I'm transferring it onto my computer. I'm making even more changes as I go. I work on Pete and Virgil for a while, then I type some of Simon. Maybe they will both be ready at the same time. We'll see.
See my head is cluttered with stuff! There are so many stories to tell that it is hard to focus on one. I can't sleep at night because stories are floating around in my head. It's great and awful at the same time. It seem that since I made the decision to be more focused on my writing and be more disciplined the stories are just pouring out. I just can't type fast enough to get them all down. So for now, I'm telling my brain the stories will be told. All in good time.
