Im making progress, as I have just cleared one more big step. My plans are progressing. D-day is coming. This is exciting for me as Im entering a territory that few have breached before. This is all new to me, but things seem to be going in my favor. Whether I be loved or loathed, this has the propensity to make me a household name. But fame or fortune is not what Im striving for. Im looking for a sense of justice and vindication, and they both will be mine shortly.
One more step cleared

I don't know if this has anything to do with the book you are writing, but either way, I wish you the best in your endeavor.

Thanks, it does kinda fit in with the book indirectly. The book will be in the more distant future, because I dont feel I am able to write things and put them together to make sense. I will have to consult with alot of people on it. Im not that good of a writer, so yes it will take a miracle to get that done.

In my experience, that is more a learned skill than an innate talent. I felt the same way too. I knew I had a lot to say, but I wasn't sure how to organize it all to make it both readable and pleasurable to read. I then read a bunch of books on writing and characters and dialog and such and the one thing that all these books seemed to have in common was the importance of maintaining a regular journal. Well, I tried to put that suggestion in practice, but after a few days, I'd forget about my journal and then a week or two would go by. But, after awhile, the two weeks gaps turned into week gaps and those turned into just a day or two here and there.
Once journaling became a regular part of my life, I really noticed improvement in both how I organized and expressed my thoughts. I think the same can happen for anyone.

I started my own book in January and I understand what you mean. Abandoned has great advice that works for me. Still felt I needed more so I take night classes on writing at a local college. It's been a confidence booster for sure as my teacher has found my work to be awe inspiring.

Whatever you are aiming at is very nebulous from the way you describe it, I can't really make out what you are on to but I wish you all the best in achieving it.

Thank you Greendawn.
Nebulous? It's writing at it's best. From the heart and the truth. Passion, creativity and hurt that has been biulding inside too long to ignore. It will never be said enough, "Write, write the truth, the truth shall set you free."
