A few words...
"You’re not a mom unless there’s a kid; you’re not a writer unless there are words on the page."
This is a quote from the blog, Writing on the Water
I'm going to have to organize my life differently to be a writer, because most days there are not words on any pages, virtual or otherwise. Last night I skipped one of my favorite movies to write. I'm messing around with a story. Messing around is an accurate description. It will probably never be a real story but the more I write the more I learn to write. That is what I tell myself every time I read over it and realize I have way too many characters, or when Chuck reads it and says, "Is there anyone in this story that you don't know personally?" AAaaaahhh!!!
So I write, not for publication, but for sublimation.
