the storylines

i think what sticks is the story lines?
they are always so ... weird and specific and i love writing them out and finding meaning from them
like one was about a woman who was kidnapped so she can be cloned multiple times and sold and then there was a sort of gang war(?) and the original knew she would die but they would make copies of her so she stabbed herself with a pen over and over again so the pain and trauma she felt would be set in her DNA and passed down to her clone so the clone can run away and set the other clones free

Writing a novel

I have a private board on Pinterest for my novel. I fill it with quotes that connect to the plot and photos that remind me of my characters. Clothes they may have worn, people they resemble, what their lives looked like. Right now the novel spans almost forty years of their lives. That's so much time and not enough at all, is it? These characters and this story have been living in my head for four years now. They are so real and vivid to me, almost consuming. Since then I have graduated college, survived a pandemic, gotten my first big girl job, quit that job to pursue writing, and so much more. These characters have been mine, all mine, through that — it's no wonder I allow myself to get distracted and stray from writing. I am scared to let them go. Sure my friends and writing group have seen glimpses of this novel, but no one except for me knows the scope, the final destination. I'm selfish and scared but that's not fair to myself or the story, is it?

falling alseep to complex made up storylines in your head

there are so many characters and there’s drama and plots and twists and of course a romantic interest but then sometimes a character just starts doing jumping jacks and i gotta restart the scene all over again 🙄👎🏼😔

ENDING SENTENCES WITH ELLIPSES LIKE A BOOMER

It lends a reflective and wistful tone to written communications imo…

Never changing

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
