I think I've just completed the bare bones of a story. I've tried writing stories since I was probably eleven and always stopped after the first chapter. I have first chapters of various scripts and stories but they are always stopped as soon as I read them back.
However I was determined to write something and expect it to be rubbish and then re write it better. Normally I write once and as with this blog, don't even read it back once. I find I love the feeling I get from writing alone. It seems to spout quite freely from the pen (or iPod). But to read it is where I see that as good as it felt to write it doesn't read like that. It would be great if I could get my story to a stage that I can print off one copy to be read by nearest and dearest. Something solid I could hold in my hand would be cool. I've managed to do this blog for almost seven months and it's a nice feeling for me at least to visit it just to see that it exists, but you can't hold it in your hand.
This year has started off pretty slowly and so it's been difficult to know what to write which explains why it doesn't feel like I'm saying much. I think it's time to tell a few stories from my past soon. Since doing this blog is basically free therapy for me.
