I know that I need to take babysteps, but that first step scares the crap out of me.
Why?
It's all too much for me to handle.
I just can't do it all alone.
I always feel alone.
I know that I'm not alone, but that rarely makes a difference.

Losing myself in fiction
I haven't been writing anything of importance lately. I have been diving into the Delicious world of nighttime soap TV and corny romance novels. It is my curse and a blessing to have someplace to go to get away from what I know that I should be doing.
Okay, so I know that my goal (as it always has been) is to write a novel. I have had this as one of my goals for a long time. However, it is now my central goal. Not because it is the next big thing that I want to do, but because it is going to take a awful long time to finish. Or should I say start.
How to write a novel:
Step 1: get out and live
Step 2: write about what you know
Step 3: get it published and become world known
I started the leg (should that be finger) work when I started this blog. But as I often do, I lost sight of my goal and focused to much on the details. I do not need to write my novel this year, but I do need to write. I also need to get paid, because life isn't free & I do not have a trust fund.
So, I'm writing. I'll just call my fictional guilty pleasures research/inspiration.

My 100 blog posting
I have been reading my old blog on myspace. It wasn't even my first blog. I didn't realize how long that I've been blogging, but it's over 10 years. So, this is - by far - not my 100 blog posting ever. Just # 100 here!
Still this is something to celebrate. I was hoping for 365 postings my first year here, but my project failed me.
I feel a strange emptiness in my writing after reading my postings from 7 years ago. I was unabashedly blogging out my life. Now I can't turn out a single blog without tossing the idea around for a few days.
I wasn't going to make this a personal blog. It was for my writing, but there is nothing more personal than my poetry.
*Simple musings* that is what I called the blog after the project was ended. It's about time that I getting musing!
Your's truly,
Melanie Ann
