Daily Confessions 15

Hi. Welcome to a new decade. I know I'm a little late on that bandwagon. Happy Chinese New Year! There. That's a bit more recent. 

I've been contemplating all sorts of things. My day job. Why I write. My future as a home owner (Very Future). Despairing over my choices, I started catching up with my previously neglected reading. Don't get me wrong, I love to read. Three books down, I found myself  knee deep into Caitlin Doughty's Smoke Gets In Your Eyes. Her YouTube channel Ask A Mortician is amazing. 

I started reading Frankenstein by Mary Shelley wondering if I'd even read it before. I didn't recognise this edition. It’s really good. At chapter three, I couldn't help but want to write like that. 

In the midst of having some time off, ideas for books and short stories flooded my overactive imagination. So many stories, not enough time. I'm sure that's also the source of my nightmares, and daymares. And more likely the source of all my anxieties. 

Today I'm going to write a lot. That's what I tell myself. My hand isn't fast enough for everything that I want to spill out of my brain and onto an empty page. Nevertheless, I'm excited to continue Eva's unfortunate love life and battles to come. 

I will leave you with your thoughts. Have a good day.

A New Year 2020

The new decade is here. The longest and darkest month is here. The unrelenting rain is here.

It's easy to slip into melancholy during this time of the year. It's important to remember that spring is only around the corner. The sun will rise earlier. The days will lengthen. Storms will come and go. 

I love a fresh start. A blank page. An opportunity to create something new. I intend to write on a regular basis. Track it, and complete The Moon Chronicles. I'm excited to start writing a new book. 

I also intend to read more/listen to more books. I also hope to tell you about it with more reviews. 

I also want to create more art. 

Anyway, I can keep telling you what I want to do. The main thing is, do things that make you happy. Be kind to yourself and others. Practice self-care. 

Have a good day.
