post 380 ~ realizations…
- personal dream? ~ like i recently told , as a result of the past few months, i finally remembered (or reaffirmed) an old adolescent dream to “write a book”… i’ve done little sci-fi fanfics over the last several years (original characters and stories within universes already created by others), but in the effort to build my own ORIGINAL sci-fi universe, i created to collect my notes and sketches (protected) as well as pieces of my story…
note to inspire myself: “Start small! Don’t worry about how well others have written in the past. Just do it, whether expertly or pathetically, just write for yourself and for the love of your characters! If you worry too much, you’ll never get anything done!”
- pseudo-sister? ~ just a day or two ago, another idea hit me… it’s been weird living with my ex-wife , nothing wrong, just still a bit weird… but in thinking of her family as pretty-much my family, what if i thought of her as a “sister”?… and it clicked… oddly, her little habits around the house, or chats with another guy, are no longer so irritating or weird; just as if a real sister lived around the house… kinda makes sense, right? she thought so too ;)

Actually… makes sense to me. Which is weird (for me anyway… I don’t deal well with the ex-es). I probably only get it because I’ve had a “brother” situation fit a similar profile. Maybe ya gotta live it to understand it.

true enough… before now, if i’d heard someone else talk about it, i might only comprehend it logically/intellectually, but not emotionally…
and just to confirm, i assume u don’t mind if my “scifix” posts are notes and sketches and outlines that may give things away before the properly written fiction is developed?

‘course not. If anything, I think the development of the story can be just as interesting as the story itself.
