If there was a way I could make you see.

So I've started writing... again. The first project I started was beginning to get utterly stagnant. I wouldn't call it writers block; I know the direction I want to take the story, but I am wanting to write something more, adventurous? So I'm on Chapter 2 of my new project. I'm hoping I can keep up the pace I'm at with it now.

I mapped out my plot last night, this book will probably be more interesting to people my age and a bit younger. A little drama, a little suspense, a little romance, and lots of action. I am excited to start hitting the action parts. It's a plot I've been thinking about since middle school, and I've written a lot of short stories about it. Just never the fiction novel I've wanted to start.

I think I've started it because lately, for some reason, I've become more conscious of time, and the lack of it. Sometimes things creep by so slow, but lately, it's flown. I feel like if I don't take advantage of the time I have I may never get to writing it. Even if I spend the money to get it published and it doesn't even sell one copy... I don't care. I did it, and one of my dreams will be crossed off of the list.

I'm on the 3rd book of the Twilight saga, "Eclipse". I bought it and Breaking Dawn at Barnes and Noble yesterday... a staggering 41 dollars from my Christmas money. But the paperbacks aren't out yet; I had to make the sacrifice. Stephenie Meyer is quickly becoming an admired writer in my sight, and she's inspired me to get my story written. Her style is very similar to mine, I love her descriptiveness.

Wish me luck.
