The rain is one of those good and bad things lately. In all honesty I've always enjoyed a good thunderstorm. The heavier the rain the more I like it. But this constant gloom that has taken Southern Ontario is driving me nuts.
I'm all up for a good gothy gloom, but it's supposed to be spring going into summer. This is the time that I want to feel up and happy and fresh. I want to feel like I'm getting motivated to become an active participant in my life again. I find that being cooped up in the house is not successful for a good start. I've been enjoying getting out of the house if only to take the dog for a walk.
I'm now on page 9 going on 10 of my story. I think I've figured out how to do the dialoguing for now. It may need some re-vamping but I want to get the story written then I'll do the editing. I may need to get someone else to do the editing, being I'm terrible at editing my own stuff. At least my story is fairly light hearted and easy going. It will hopefully be fun enough that someone may actually want to read it. lol. I am not expecting miracles in the writing of it. I know some people who write expect their stories/books/etc to actually make it to some sort of publication. I, on the other hand, am just hoping to finish it. If it ever makes it to something fancy, well then bully on me, but I won't hold my breath for that. So for now I will write the story and leave it at that. Being I am only managing a page to 3 when I write, I think this may take some time... as in I don't really know how long. By math logic if I wrote 3 pages a night it would take me apx 33 nights to make 100 pages.... but I know me. I won't manage 1 page a night let alone 3... and if I do, it won't be EVERY night.
So I'll keep writing and seeing where it leads me.
Maybe some mommy outings would help? Have you heard of things like this: http://www.meetup.com/GuelphBusyBabes/ or even this: http://www.gwchildcare.ca/about.cfm?
