It Has Started...
Well, I have taken the exciting next step in my life. Actually, it's only a baby step, but still.
I have started my first novel.
No, don't laugh. I am dead serious. Some of you may remember me talking about a dream I had about a year ago. The dream is about a newly married couple in conflict about the husband's work schedule. The husband was called in to work on date night. Well, the wife spends the night with a friend and has this dream about her and her husband sitting in a field, when she sees this rabbit looking at the two of them. Well, she wakes up, goes home, and sees a stuffed rabbit in a box that her husband hadn't unpacked yet.
Her husband came home from work, and tells her about the rabbit. He said that his mother gave it to him after her and his dad divorced. That's when the wife knows that everything is going to be all right. I will go more into detail in person, because I don't trust the Internet. But that's the essence of it.
Cool dream, huh? Well, I have decided to write this dream into a novel. And now I realized that I have spoiled the ending for all my friends. Oh, well.
I don't know how interested anyone will be in the novel. But at least I'm writing it for myself. My mother actually writes, too. She likes to write about Southern life and stuff like that. My style of writing is more detail-oriented: I like to incorporate all the senses. I'll often go off about the feel of softness, smells, tastes, stuff like that. I think it adds to the atmosphere of the book.
Above all, I hope my novel gives a sense of comfort to people who read it.
