Recently, I've started writing a book. I won't say what about as that is top secret (mainly because I don't want criticism) For years, it has been a kind of secret desire. Just to write a book. If it were never published, that would be ok. I'm writing for me. When I was younger, I filled a note book with short children's stories. I can still remember the first title of the first story: The Golden Eagle. I had even drawn (badly) an eagle in pen at the bottom of the page at the end of the story. I can't remember what any of the other stories were called; I wish I'd kept the book.
Anyway, the book I'm writing now is not a collection of children's stories. It's fiction and yet some of it, I know isn't. I don't think I could write it otherwise. I can't help but write pieces of me into the book or not express some of the emotions I've felt. I'm finding the whole process liberating and creative. I already have an idea for a second book.
