Blog of a newbie writer and her adventures with Sir Cursoralot - my cursor friend and foe. |
|
First time at writing a novel, first time blogging at 51. Bloody hell, this will be interesting. I am writing under my pen name Amare (pronounced Ar - Mah - Ray) which is latin for my real name. I am a proud Aussie who lives in Queensland on an acre property with my husband and our 3 beautiful furkids (golden retrievers) I am a puppy educator for Guide Dogs for the blind and love the sense of achievement when we see one of our amazing pups go on to change the life of a vision impaired person. Raised 6 pups myself before working full time. A very satisfying and rewarding job. Now I'm trying to achieve something more personal for myself as a writer, a journey and maybe success just for me. Also working on self belief, self love, building my confidence, self growth and believing I'm worth something. Not an easy task. So come on a journey with me. Hopefully it will be a fun read from time to time, and it will be bluntly honest. |
| It's the small things, right?? Sir Cursoralot is quite happy with me, and so is Mason, my main character in my first novel draft. I have shifted Mason from his room, which he has been stuck in for days, and he and Lavender have finally found the time to really start talking. Chapter complete!! Clap, Clap, Clap for me!!! Sir Cursoralot got some exercise and is feeling fit and full of energy once again, so tomorrow we may tackle the next chapter. One day at a time!! Feeling stuck like I was?? I recommend taking some time out. Apologise to your characters. Explain that they will remain in limbo for just a little while and that you will get back to them as soon as you can. Mason has forgiven me, I'm sure, and I feel so much better for it. It is only in our character's best interests that we rest when we need to. I hope that all of you out there feeling stuck and frustrated will soon rise from the funk and have your fingers flying across the keys in no time. I hope you do!!
