Novels And Ditches

Novels

After more and more consideration, I realized that writing a novel would help me in a way. Why did I decide to change my mind? Personally I think it was the "nostalgia" of writing short stories for my English unit that brought back my love for writing.

However the theme of the story is still swirling around in my head, waiting for me to catch it. I'm fairly confident I will be writing a novel, but I'm unsure as to what the novel will be about.

To whoever commented on my last post, what you said about never learning how to write if you don't ever attempt it also factored in my decision. Thanks to whoever you are (I like yet somehow dislike the anonymous commenting feature of this blog).

I'll probably be putting up more details about the novel itself in the next few posts, so if you are somehow genuinely interested in it, then you can find out about it around here. Who knows, maybe I'll think that this whole novel thing is a bad idea in the near future.

Ditches

I'm the kind of person who doesn't know when to stop at times. Somtimes I do, and sometimes I don't. It's like I'm driving this car and I see this ditch ahead (sound familiar?). A part of me thinks I can just get over it, and another is telling me to stop and find another way.

So what type of thinking does this portray? The me who wants me just to ride over it is irrational and quick to make decisions without thinking about it. The me who is telling me to find another way has a much more logical thinking process, but at times can over think things.

I've been riding into ditches this whole week.

Mind's Empty

Like most days, I have run out of things to blog. Therefore I'm sorry to say that this is what you'll have to be satisfied with from my blog. A post about a novel that has about a 25% success rate and ditches. Hooray.

I always try to find new ways to phrase the number thing, but I can't. I always get stuck with something that I've used before. Today I'm an 8. Parts of the day were okay and some parts I would have preferred not to be in.
