Is not going as fast as I would like. And I am getting frustrated that I cannot go at the planned rhythm.

The idea of having something nearly finished in one year, is fasting dissolving, considering the amount of time and silence I need to step into the “writing zone”.

Need to be feeling what I am writing. My best work is when I can step into the scene, be one of my characters, find the right words to express the moment. And that my friends, takes a lot of time.

So I continue listening to the podcast. It’s great for ideas, gives a more structured way on the components that need to be in the book, makes me dwell on how to make certain things make sense in the story.

And I have a bunch of short notes to process into the book lining. It’s priceless walking on the street, talking with my phone saying things as “and please just remain alive!” just to see folks looking at me like I am (indeed) a crazy person.

This to say; I am not giving up! But, as other things in life, the idea of doing it and the doing it in itself, are two completely different things.
