I have to admit, I have not been sleeping well recently. Not at all. Until last night, lots of good sleep then. Bet you understand it. You have had those night when sleep will not come and stay. But, Oh yes last night was good. It was like typing and getting lost in the sound of the typewriter. It just kept going. Dare I say, sing to me?
And then our breakfast was fantastic. Coffee, chocolate croissants, and (vegan in our house) sausages. If you have a Trader Joe’s you can get the chocolate croissants put them on a tray, let them rise overnight and then turn on the oven to bake them off. They work great. The flavors mixed well and … happy day to start.
My apologies, but the event that will not be named because I hate typing the mixed, the camel case name, well that is hitting the midpoint. I have over half off the words typed, 25,000 being the mark I passed by but jesus. What a grind to keep going. Every morning well let me explain, I get up do a little bit of morning stuff and then I settle down and start to type. On a fast day, one in which I have the ideas plotted out so I just need to fill in the planks, I can fill in the blanks in three hours or so. Be done by noon. That is getting more and more difficult. Coming up with the ideas to have a framework so I have a thing to fill in, well it is no longer there. I have to Stop, come up with more to write about and then fill it in. Fah, gah, I will continue.
One thing I did, thanks to advice from Kent, was to come up with things to spread out and fill in. (what that mean? What does that mean?) I have a bunch of things I can fill in. It is not like starting at the start and going on. I can write filler points, I could, if I knew where the novel was going, write the final scenes, And then got back, after a break, and return to where the book is going.
This morning, after the great breakfast I continued with my book, or the main part , the big narrative, and fill it out because I had an idea. AND I WROTE IT DOWN. And then I went to my notes and they were legible and everything and I just filled out the ideas on paper what a way to go.
I had other ideas for tonight’s (I always type my One Typed Page at night) typing, but this seems to have taken over. Now I have written down ideas in my notebook and they will be there tomrooow tomrorraw, tomorraw, whatever the spelling is there someplace and it will be there tomorrow and (hooray!) I will have something to type about.
Someone here knows or is learning Esperanto? Please let me know.
