I don’t make predictions because I never received my crystal ball in the mail. But in this armchair mystic’s opinion, 2007 is going to be one hell of a year for us all. For me, personally, I feel stars aligning this year, clicking into Keplerian place as the orbits of the planets start humming in harmony again and shit starts getting right in the world.
Like my man reverse_vampyr, I too have been working for well over a decade on a story. His is a comic book, mine is a novel but you get the similarity. I’ve written this story a dozen times on paper and countless hundreds of times in my head. Snippets have come to me through dreams, waking revelations and insights brought on through personal relationships.
And now I’ve got an outline, bitches! That’s right–I finally sat down and thundered out a rough outline that I’m in the process of turning into a smooth one. Plus, I’ve already written a few dozen pages to get the feel of the story and I likey-likey how it feels under my fingertips and the keyboard gets more and more battered and the page number and word count grow higher.
I learned a long time ago that good writers write all the time and great writers only touch the pen when inspiration calls them. My mind goes silent for weeks and months but I never complain because when the neurons fire up, it’s like a lightning storm in Texas, Jack. And when the floods come roaring down the valleys of my mind, I never go for high ground–I grab a log and go where the river takes me.
And this river is going somewhere very special, my peeps. I will be revealing more and more about this novel to my readers as time goes on this year but know that if I go a couple few days without blogging–chances are I’m working on the goody good stuff.
