Remember those? I feel a little like I’m writing a book that is out of my control. The guy who started NaNo was right. You start with this basic frame and scope, and there go the main characters. They propel themselves. My main character has found things and done things as if it was on her own. I didn’t have plans for secondary characters and here they are, helping her on her mission. All of a sudden there a flashbacks and background and chapters and progressions that I hadn’t even planned out.

It’s like they are choosing the adventure and I’m just following along. I feel like a writer. I had been waiting for that. It’s transcendental. At this point also, my writing is improving. It feels more natural and has a strong tone.

For everyone aspiring to be published, check this out: iUniverse.

The opportunity that this provides is remarkable. I of course am a long way off from thinking about becoming published, but it is working as a strong motivator!
