Sad parts suckEntry #674812
I wrote about 2300 words today, but it was really tough going. I'm basing the main character of my novel off of me, and part of my life that I'm incorporating into that (loosely) is my grandmother's hospitalization and death. She died about 5 years ago after an extended and heartbreaking illness, and I really don't think about it that much anymore, at least not in terms of crying in the middle of the night, but writing about it made all those feelings all come to the surface again. I think it definitely helps make a good story, it's just really hard to write. Oh well, I guess that's part of being a writer...tear your heart out, sift through the good bits and slap it onto a page. Anyway, I'm really happy with how my novel's progressing, though this second chapter is going to be considerably longer than I thought it was going to be :)
