Since I created this blog AFTER I had begun my 2nd draft, I am starting on this chapter. Yes, I have done 3 chapters, but they are not necessarily in order.
This is early in my writing career (haha), and I am still learning everything! Last night I went to Starbucks, set up in ‘MY’ corner, with the intention of writing one specific life event. Well, as soon as the laptop warmed up, I switched gears and decided to write about Brent’s half brother - completely unrelated to my original thought. I told a story about my genealogy research on Brent’s family and that led right into my search for the mystery half brother.
It turned out to be a long chapter, and also a rather emotional one. When I was done though, I felt really good putting that event into words.
It is fascinating to me how this story is unfolding. Writing is coming to me easier than I thought it would. Or maybe I am just managing my writing time better. I wonder when that writer’s block will hit?
