The Horse

It is a little difficult to get back on the horse when you've jumped off and walked beside it for a little bit of time.  Blog not forgotten or given up, simply paused for the break to enjoy full time with loved ones.  However, I meant to begin again and catch up on Sunday/Monday of this week... Here we go!

Search for Inspiration

It's there, somewhere.
Out among the floating wisps
Of thought and ideas.
Elusive, tentative
Awaiting just the right grasp,
A tickle, a nudge,
To emerge from the fray
And whisper the song
Into the heart of its seeker.

Novel Idea

The novel ideas are churning churning churning!

Coming into an eclectic and exciting mix of characters, their relationships, their purposes, their changes through facing challenges together... 

And all of their stories seem to be existing around the idea that we as people contain qualities of light and shadow. Our thoughts, actions, and reactions to the world around us determine which of these forces ultimately takes over our hearts and our futures.

I am never honest.

So I try to surround myself with honest people.  Their openness, their sincerity, their stark goodness are all a refreshing change from everything I know and am.

And it's easy to hurt them and cut ties when I have to move on.  They never want me back and it's better when I go, so I don't destroy them.

I am a liar, a cheat, and a thief.  I am the powerless son of a dark wizard who loathes me.  But I know his secrets and I made him need me.

Characters talking in my head!  Always exciting.  :)

Nanowrimo!

For the first time since hearing about Nanowrimo, I won't be in school -- meaning I'll be theoretically able to give it a shot in November and write 50,000 words!!

Much excitement. :)

Erase the lines
Start it over
It wasn't bad
It wasn't good
Not taking back
Just trying again
Dust it off
Sharpen the pencil
Here we go
