Here's a fun exercise that I like to do. You can either absorb things uninterrupted and write them down later, or, do what I do, record the experiences as they happen. Think of a favorite place you like to go. Close your eyes and try to picture the setting. Are you there? Are you outside, feel the wind, or absence thereof. Are you indoors? What do you see? Are there any smells associated with this place? Can you remember what it's like to touch the things surrounding you? What was the texture?

Who is your favorite character in the fantasy, paranormal realms? Do you have more than one? If you are like me, I have several. Is yours Harry Potter, Bella, Frodo? I say yes to all of the above and more, but I think my most favorite, of course, is Arenthia and Jannell, because I live and breathe them every day of my life. I think, we, as authors all feel this way. We live with our characters 24/7 and love, nurture, and care for them. Some are our very best friends. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

I prefer writing in the fantasy/paranormal/sci-fi genres because anything can happen. The worlds that I can create are boundless and I can let my imagination soar. I even find myself giggling as I'm writing, whether it be a scene or a piece of dialogue. The things that come to mind, sometimes, are just so much fun! But what's even more exciting is when others read the material and laugh, cry, or gasp in all the right places. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Living by my pen. NYT Sunday Book Review.

Norphendril: November 2009
http://norphendril.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Things are getting much clearer. I'm so excited! If you check out my other blog, Living By My Pen, you will see why. I am so glad that I found a way to get my creative juices channeled, so I can stay focused on the project. Take thirty to forty minutes and relive your childhood dreams. Did you fly with dragons, run with elves, or were you visited in the night by faeries and gnomes, or romp in the forest with talking animals? Did you have an invisible friend only you could see? What do you see? Can you re...

So, a little bit of a set back. I have a major flaw in my manuscript so I'm going to have to take time off and revamp the first book. I'm grateful to Elizabeth Law for helping me out with solving the problem. She's an awesome editor. It was a pleasure to meet her at the SCBWI Conference last weekend.

Since the moment I could make sense of the alphabet, put two words together, form even the smallest sentence, I was intrigued with the written word! Books are my passion, my life's blood. If you were to cut me open, I would probably bleed words and letters. With books, I can escape the most painful realities, become whomever I want to be, and venture to the most wonderous places. So, it is my fondest wish that in some small measure the characters in my books will do the same for others. Living by my pen.

Take thirty to forty minutes and relive your childhood dreams. Did you fly with dragons, run with elves, or were you visited in the night by faeries and gnomes, or romp in the forest with talking animals? Did you have an invisible friend only you could see? Have you written about these experiences, explored the imagination of your childhood-self, or tapped into the emotions you felt back then? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Living by my pen.
