Summer
has arrived and like always it is a time to enjoy being out in the
heat, to go out and relax with cold beers, and where women lay out there
and try to tan. In the past, I'll either be working a summer job or
still looking for one, loaf at home, play sports with the guys, and be around more
with my family. This lifestyle is no different from year to year but,
there are significant changes for this year. For 2013 I'm not just
headed in a different direction, I'm forging that pathway.
For
the past month and a bit, in the free time I have, I have dedicated
some of that time to write everyday. Most of the writing has been put
into developing a novel, my very first novel. A lot of time was spent on
writing this novel already but, it is not near being finished. What is
my novel about? I won't reveal much at all to anyone and won't until it
is completed and ready to be read. This makes it the all more mysterious
and intriguing I hope. Besides, I prefer not to show my works-in-progress until it's finished anyways.
I have many stories that I want to write about that will fall into the fiction/fantasy categories.
These stories will run wild of imaginations, they will go deep
searching and discovering the things I want to express that matters the
most to me.
Writing everyday has evolved into a habit by now, it has become a part of my daily routine. I get up each morning eager to progress my story further and it waits for me to write more after I get off from work. It has become a part of me.
It is going to be one difficult task to write my stories well. It will take a very long time and will require a significant amount of thinking, researching and revisions. It will be a lot of work but, I welcome it though. I am motivated and willing to put in the effort to do the hard work and spend the time to fulfill this meaningful purpose.
In writing novels, I feel I am being true to myself in this road I created to walk ahead on. I am not afraid of finding myself being thrown down from the hardships I'll endure. I know I have the strength and passion to get myself back up and fight on. This is who I am and I will write my stories.
