Proverbial butt. That happened yesterday. One of my workmates is very enthusiastic about my writing. Very supportive. He loves to brainstorm with me. He tells me I have legit talent. All the things!
Not going to lie, I haven’t been writing. Rejection is a powerful stopping force. I’ve not handled it well. Well, take a poo or get off the potty pot, Jules.
I’m back to it. Again.
Yesterday, friend says “I want to see you succeed. Take 30 minutes a day and write.” It makes sense, yeah? No writing = no income from writing. Duh. Last night wasn’t quite 30 minutes, but it was a start. Today I fired up the old YouTube and searched for “The Hero Arc”. My story has, well, a hero. The fellow talked a lot about Joseph Campbell. If you haven’t read his books, you should. Great stuff!
Wrote a little more today as well. And I worked on my confluence page. I borrowed this idea from Sanderson. He keeps a personal wiki for his writing. I have basic pages for each of my characters set up so far. Gotta start some where. Or, keep going from somewhere. Something.
Carry on!!!
Be safe, and be well.
Jules
