I understand the world better when I have rules, procedures, guidelines. Anything that I can follow and understand.

Embarking on this creative journey was (without a doubt) one of the more daunting things I ever decided to do. And to be honest, I was lost.
After taking online courses, conducting research, and attending webinars, I still did not understand what “your hero’s goals” were. Which goals? Mid-term ambitions? Work-related?
My brain is too literal for its own good, and that is precisely why words, books, and poetry make such an impact in my life. My brain needs the wonder, the subliminal meaning, the indirect personification, and the direct empathy. The words that separate mean one thing, but together are much more than the sum of their parts.

Having a method helps me a lot. I wrote nearly zero words in the last month, but I have ideas that are finally entering in the correct order of events. I have characters that I wrote and am already killing, and my side plot definitely needs a lot of work, even for a first draft.
