You can not create a masterpiece in a day, week or month. I have tried a million times. And I will keep on trying. I have a story to tell. I know I am no Margaret Mitchell thousand page “Gone with the Wind”. I am more of a fifty-six page Dr. Seuss “Oh, the Places You’ll Go!” which is short and playful more like me.
It is frustrating not being able to whip out a bestseller in a day. It is a story of my life. Right before I sleep each night, I write a novel or two in my head and they are really good – full of kick-butt inspiration and meaning of life. Too bad, my brain can not detached itself and write the novels while I sleep.
This article – http://www.writersdigest.com/online-editor/10-things-your-freelance-editor-might-not-tell-you-but-should – directed me in a new direction tonight. I am sure that road or life is filled with stones and numerous forks that lead wherever.
Don’t over think this book. And never compare your story with others and think it’s not good enough. Everyone’s story is different. If it wasn’t it would be a boring world. Write down any and all thoughts you have each day. And in the end, it will all come together into the greatest story you’ve ever told.
