Writing.
Isn’t it amazing how simple words on a page can transport you to another place in time… how colorless sentences fuse together to create a world so vivid right before your eyes? Page after page, the imagination runs free and pulls you into a new reality.
This summer, I have spent my free time indulging in lots of great books… Some of you may know that I have been wanting to write my own novel for awhile. I had an idea spark about two years ago that I never revisited, but I remembered it recently as I was trying to fall asleep one night. This time, an entire scene flashed through my mind, so I quickly grabbed a pen and recorded as many details as I could in a small journal. Ideas continued to flow ever since, and they have inspired me to finally begin plotting. It will be years, of course, before its publication, and I know that I wont have much time once school starts back up. No matter when or if this book is ever released, I really hope see my own novel on a shelf someday somewhere…
Do you have any advice? Have you published or aspire to publish a book some day too? I would love to hear from you, and thanks for reading!
Wow, good for you, Maysa!! That is sooo exciting! I would totally read a book of yours!
There are probably a million things I could tell you about writing, but if I had to narrow it down to one, I’d definitely just say: keep writing. Write even if you think it’s terrible and it sucks and it’s trash. One thing I’ve learned is that Future You will edit those pages, but Future You can’t edit a single word if Present You doesn’t write any.
Writing book can be hard, but good luck and have just have lots of fun with it!!
