This one was tough. I covered a bit more ground than I intended to, but I think the payoff is quite nice. It's kind of fun, writing like this. It's so organic, so natural. I just establish my characters, and let them dictate where the story goes.I think part of the fun is that I'm writing it in first person. I get to be someone else, just for a few minutes a day. It's almost like literary acting. And the story is turning into a very sweet little tale, so far. I hope you're all enjoying it.My First KissEven as I stood in front of my closet, I kne

I'm really enjoying building this character. I have a firm idea of where this is going, and I have to say, you're probably going to be a bit surprised at where this ends up. Individual scenes and circumstances aren't going to be quite as original (it is still me writing, after all), but it'll be worth keeping up.Let me know how this is being received. Do you like where the story is going? Do you like how I'm structuring the installments? Would you prefer them to be longer (or shorter)? Feedback would be appreciated.Thanks a bunch for reading!A Random, Life-

I re-read the last installment earlier today, and, though I'm happy with it overall, I probably wouldn't have focused so much on the medical stuff if I were to go back into it. I guess I just can't help it. I over-explain. Usually, when I edit, I just cut that stuff out. But with this experiment, my work is raw and unedited. This is where my mind goes while I'm writing. I do like where the story is going, and we're getting closer to the fun stuff. Hope you're enjoying it.Love (or infatuation) At First Sight Normal 0 false

I couldn't help it. I made myself wait until after midnight (as per my 1 entry per day rule), but I couldn't wait any longer. I simply had to continue telling this story. We're almost through the introduction, and we'll probably start into the meat of the narrative tomorrow. Lots of fun scenes planned. Hope it keeps your interest.The Diagnosis Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE

So I think the writing experiment is going well. I'm only writing one section per day (usually with a natural stopping point), and I've found that I have to make myself stop writing. I kind of know where the story is going, but I'm not sure of the details yet.But the best thing? Writing this has opened the creative doors. I have multiple cool and unique story ideas now. Which makes this a success, even before I'm finished with the introduction of the story. So there's that.Anyway, here's today's installment:The Waiting Game Normal 0

Today's installment turned out really well, I'm thinking. I feel good about the language, the story, and the emotion. And it was fun to write. Anyway, here it is.Sweat, Showers, and Secrets Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE
