The Story Behind The Story

I was up until 3:30 in the morning writing in my book. I think yesterday saw me add (after editing) just shy of 10,000 words. I'm not crazy, just trying to get this story done before I have to head to Tampa. I just posted a 2,000 word chapter over in my story blog. The next couple of days, should I...

As one of my favorite songs says, "Please Forgive Me." I'm facing a turning point that I would just as soon miss, but I can't allow my fear... that's not the right word, as I no longer fear anything... I can't allow my inner dread to keep me from doing that which needs to be done. Based on how I... Sign in to see full entry.

I always dread doing things that take me away from home now. I've come to the conclusion that I must go to Tampa, I just don't want to go. Because of my involvement as a test subject back in 2013, they are offering me a free flight and they will put me up at no charge to me. I can't really argue,... Sign in to see full entry.

If I am to believe what I was told yesterday, I will be gone several days next week. I am supposed to fly down to Tampa to be seen there in the specialty clinic for more specific blood work and chemo. I am not looking forward to this. I have until Monday morning to decide. Happy weekend to me. V Sign in to see full entry.

The Dress

The chapter I posted this morning about our pre-wedding diaster spoke about 'the dress.' You can read about that in Part 21, but this is the 'replacement dress' that was given to her a mere three days before our wedding. This is a picture of a picture of the original picture because our real wedding... Sign in to see full entry.

I worked long into the night on my current story line and still woke up about my normal time. Besides the personal sense of urgency, I want to enter this story in a contest that has multiple cash prizes that closes entries on March 17th, one week away. The story line has begun its downhill slide and... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm closing down for the night, but I've hit 40,000 words in my story. It's a syrupy love story, but it was how it was, or I guess how I saw it and remember it. All I know is that this courtship turned into a marriage that stood for a month shy of 44 years. We were absolutely smitten with each other... Sign in to see full entry.

I feel a bit saggy today. I don't feel bad and I slept well, I just don't feel any spark to keep moving. Winter time blues maybe or perhaps the memories I'm stirring in my story. Probably both. Oops, found myself daydreaming, staring into space there for a few minutes. Just dreaming. I should go lay... Sign in to see full entry.

Whew. The chemo for the day and the week is behind me. I've either learned to galvanize myself against this crap or they've changed the content to the solutions. I'm not ready to go on a five mile jaunt, but I'm not staggering across the floor and falling into bed. I'll take that. My markers have... Sign in to see full entry.

I was moved and motivated today. I managed to get a bit over 7000 words done. Not an all time high, but up there. My best one day effort was about 12,000 words. If today hadn't had so many interruptions and a few other issues hadn't kept happening, it would have been more. Some of the memories I'm... Sign in to see full entry.
