Writing Tip for Week 1
Here is the tip for folks who want to write.
She Don’t Like ’em, But I Do.
One of the highlights of the summer has been Hope’s American History class. (I love watching the videos, she doesn’t). It has spurred some great conversations. It has reminded me that this country was founded by a bunch of racist sexist idiots. I mean think about it, a country founded on the principle that all men are created equal, except for Africans, Asians, Native Americas and women. The greatness comes as those groups struggle and fight for those rights. I was watching this show tonight, and John Adams said it well. “People are in need of strong governance. restraint. Most men are weak and evil and vicious.”
God knew this about us which is why He gave us laws to live by. People who try to get away from big government are really running from God being able to tell them how to live. He is not instructing to keep you in a cage or limit your freedom. He is instructing to keep you from killing all the people you will need throughout your life.
imagine if the person who could fix global warming was from Iran, or the person who developed the cure for HIV was in Syria.
God always ensures that the thing we need the most, is the thing we are the most prejudice against. Pray for us because we are still weak, evil and vicious.
I am writing the best book I have ever written
I can tell because everything wants to distract me. You know what I mean, you stop to do something that should take five seconds and it takes five hours. You have a section that is not working, so instead of going to another section, you watch TV.
God is not playing with me on this one. He said focus. I am trying.
With each lead female character write about there is something, a scene, a task, that stays with me.
Whenever I am frying anything in a pan, I think of Zoraida.
Whenever I am driving down the street and my arm is hanging out the window, I think of Sandy.
This new character has me all messed up because she is always with me. This could be part of the writing process, but her love story has me. It haunts me, It speaks to me. I think it will knock you out too.
I tell stories because it is what I do, It is what I was created to do. I still write by hand some things. (I know I am old) But I love how God uses me to tell these.
Well, I have to get back to work. I have procrastinated long enough. I don’t know how this story is going to change the world, but it is certainly working its way through me. I can’t wait to share it with you.
Peace and Hair Grease
