Hi! Boy, the writing journey is wacky,...Moonsanity,<br />Hi! Boy, the writing journey is wacky, isn't it! I'm glad you shared the journey of your story. I think more writers might be encouraged if they realized how bizarre the true genesis of a finished piece of work is. My current WIP started as a study on an interesting place from childhood--a treehouse in my backyard that I was too small to climb into. In my current story the treehouse has a very small part. But it is what sprouted the story, nonetheless. <br /><br />And I'm so glad you enjoyed AFTERLIFE! Yay!!<br />=)Merrie Destefanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04447209247265513676noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219198050829448459.post-81798595472351685102010-10-22T10:12:55.825-07:002010-10-22T10:12:55.825-07:00I clicked on this post title from my blog because ...I clicked on this post title from my blog because I wanted to email you some questions, but decided to read this first. It's weird to me that we are so much alike, and gives me hope I can force myself to write a complete book. I had a short story a year ago that started out with 2 people, a train, a visit home to a mystery with fairies, other dimensions etc. I couldn't make it work and left it. After a bunch of false starts it ended up being a shifter Christmas romance. BAHAHAHAHAHA No fairies, no other dimensions...but somehow I added gingerbread cookies to the mix. I submitted it a week ago. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your process-- nice to know I'm not the only one with disorganized thoughts.
