Here we are at the start of the second week. What have I accomplished?
I have thought some. That exercise was as valuable as you would expect. The absence of thought is usually not a recipe for success, but thought alone really has limited value. The thought requires follow-up to translate it into some form of action. I hope to take some actions this week.
I have spoken with others. Thinking with others, aloud and interactively, has far different outcomes than solitary thought. I am glad to have taken a drive up to Pennsylvania to visit old friends. Ideas are still a challenge to guide to anything that bears fruit, but ideas were discussed.
I have felt feelings. As you are bound to discern from our budding relationship, the emotional response is not my go-to solution. Yet, I am fairly certain emotion is at the heart of all fiction writing. It might well be at the heart of all writing worth reading. While the absence of emotion may be acceptable for the instruction manual for a new alternator or a mail order bed frame, nobody actually looks forward to reading these.
One concern that gnaws at me a little is my lack of true misery. The best writers in my very superficial experience as a reader have been tortured souls. They have generally cultivated some horrible tragedy or profound alienation — often amplified by drink — into a scar so deep it cuts to their very spirit. This spirit leaks out through the unhealed wound onto paper for your collective entertainment and edification.
The second is the psychogenic erection, which is achieved by erotic stimuli. tadalafil canada mastercard Parents should make sure that it stays out of the reach of children and pets, and bulk tadalafil also from the reach of heat and moisture. The medical term for the removal of an ischemia of brain controlling systems and an ischemia of genitals by way of female levitra raising the level of CO2 in blood to standard level is needed. One thing to be careful while taking Tadalafil is aimhousepatong.com ordering levitra that between two dosages of Tadalafil there should necessarily be twenty four hours gap.Sorry. That is not me. My scars have healed over nicely I think — still visible enough to add character, but not spewing forth the frothy literary blood and pus that seems to be required for greatness.
I have a few very short piece of creative writing I will share. I wrote these in the lead up to making the six-month decision. They are based on workshop prompts. It was useful for me to know how comfortable I am writing. The answer, in case it interests you. was that I am comfortable with the mechanics, but uncomfortable with the material. Honesty sucks. Some of my daily missives will remain private, but I feel as though I need to share something other than the administrative.
This week I will make progress on one or two of the science fiction stories I started working on in December.
Ciao! Stay safe and be well.
