Seeing Possibilities in Life
Listening to: Miranda Lambert, Famous in a Small Town
Reading: The Perfect Poison by Amanda Quick
I just finished revising chapter 26 of my current WIP–Shake the Sugar Tree. I’m jumping in my seat because all of a sudden I can see the end of the tunnel and it’s not this tiny dot of light in the distance. There are possibilities in writing…
It’s a journey of possibilities for me. I wake up every morning and see the possibility of success, of failure, of laughter and of death.
I know it’s easy to get caught up in the practical side of things. The how-tos. [Been there!!!] My challenge for all my writer friends is to remember the possibilities. Remember the what ifs, the fun of creating a story. Even through revisions, keep your eye on that satisfying ending because getting there is most of the fun.
You’ve been a huge encouragement to me…and I’m getting all teary just thinking about bringing this story to a close.
Love,
Bethanne
It’s been a privilege critting it. (C25 is sitting here, waiting for me to get stuck in.)
I swear that dot of light at the end of the tunnel is usually the front of an oncoming train, for me lol.
I find second drafts much, much harder than the first, so congrats to you for getting through the toughy!
