I have been told that all good things must come to an end. All good things have a beginning as well. This post marks the beginning of my blog, writing after nine, which I think is definately a good thing. What does writing after nine mean? It means I am fulfilling my dream of writing after nine PM at night. On weekdays it also means I am writing after nine hours at my job, the commute home, dinner and putting two tired tykes to bed. I hope someday after I have some published books that writing can become the job where I spend the hours before nine PM, but until then I am writing after nine.
I have always enjoyed writing and have spent years storing characters and ideas in my mind. Finally my mind became so full that I had to transfer some of them onto paper. Plus, I was not getting any younger and realized it would be good to be able to take a book jacket picture before I sprouted gray hairs. I am currently writing the first installment of a young adult paranormal series and am laying the framework for an adult paranormal romance/fantasy as well. It is not easy. Even I must sleep so the process has not been fast, but after nine PM nightly I connect with my muse and get writing. I hope you'll follow along to learn more about my novels and myself nightly after nine. And on that note, I begin and end my first blog post after nine PM :-)

A very good first article. So many people put things aside for "someday" but that day never comes. Way to make your someday today!
ReplyDeleteAwesome!It sounds like you suffer from what ails many of us. Too much to do, too little time. Good luck with the writing, the most important thing is you are doing it!
ReplyDeleteLoved your first blog, it was great! Don't feel alone, I'm in the same boat as you with the job, kids and home to take care of. We just have to stick to our deams, it's what makes life worth living :)
