Random Thoughts

I have so many thoughts and ideas rolling around in my brain that it's driving me crazy! I need to get some of them out of there! haha

Thinking about writing a book. Thoughts? Suggestions? Am I totally crazy? It probably wouldn't ever get published. I don't think I'm that good. Besides, that would be asking too much of myself, I think. I do think, however, it would be a good experience.

I remember trying to write a story when I was in Jr. High. I think I got to the middle of the first chapter before I typed

"And they lived happily ever after. The End."

Hahahaha

Or maybe I just gave up and it's sitting in a file somewhere, lost, waiting for me to find it and finish it. At any rate, I've never been good at finishing things like that.



Does anyone else have dreams that are so vivid and real that it's like you're watching a movie? And then you wake up and realize it's a dream, and the more you think about it the less you can remember, until it's just a faded memory? I hate that.

I've had a lot of dreams like that lately. I try to think about them while I'm in the shower the next morning, and then write a little of it down so I don't forget. It doesn't always work, but that's mostly where my ideas for stories come from.

Anyone else like that?

This is a totally random, disjointed post. I'm sorry if it doesn't make any sense. I just needed to think about things. But seriously, if you have any suggestions for me, or have done the same thing, please comment!

Or just comment because my self esteem depends on them.

Hahaha just kidding.

Or am I? ;)

Thanks for your support Lola! I've actually been working on it since June, but wasn't sure if it would get anywhere. Mike still doesn't think it will. He laughed when I told him. Boo!
