Hey guys!,
It's been about three weeks since I've posted but I've been a little busy editing Runaway. This is my third reread and every time I reread it I find something I don't like so I end up rewriting a chapter or two. I love it though. I always think up something new to put in that adds to the story or gives it a little pop.
I also have been rewriting The Bloody Lady. I'm not feeling that title too much either but it's how one of my characters describe her. I think I may have to think up a different title for it.
This week I was searching through one of my boxes of notebooks for a story I wrote back in high school, and I found an old removable drive that had about six stories on it. I've also been editing some of those stories, including a ghost story that my mom experienced as a teen in the south. So I have a lot of work to do and I'm loving all of it.
I swear there are very few things in this world that give me more pleasure than writing! Its like I constantly get to create new worlds and new situations and new love stories. I get to escape within myself for three or four hours every night and just be somewhere else. It's so much fun!
My mom and sister are begging me for a continuation of Carlie. My mom loved it so much and she was so proud when I told her I wrote it. My sister was a little skeptical about my writing. She didn't think I could and now she's like, Keep going! What happens? Does she meet his parents? Does he meet hers? Is she going to marry him? Does the biker guy come back for revenge?
I was going to leave it as is. I loved the ending and how they were just like a family unit and I didn't want them to get married at the end, that's so cliche. But now I'm thinking I should continue the story. Maybe pick up the story somewhere down the road. I kind of wanted them to go their separate ways and maybe come back together some how years later.
What do you guys think? Should I make up a second part to Carlie?
Well let me get back to work. Today is so gorgeous out I think I'm going to go chill in the park. Maybe I'll walk to town when I'm finished editing. I think that comic book store is still there. I haven't read X-Men in about ten years but I'm really in the mood to read a comic today.
Stay cool!!
