I have to say another thank you to all those who were involved in my Christmas! It was much more then I could have ever asked for. There is one person in particular who was able to somehow read a part of my mind about what I wanted. My Best Friend..... BumblePot :)..... She has been an awesome supporter and help when it comes to my writing. Even if it's just a short paragraph or an idea in my head, she always is there to read or listen. She loves writing just like I do. Although I would bet to say that she is WAY better at writing then I am. I haven't been able to read a ton of her stuff but from what I have read and heard about. She's awesome!
Anyways back to Christmas, she got me 3 things that topped my ten best presents this year. First a book about getting into character within your writing. A book by the way that we have been talking about for a year now. First she introduced it to me through her book and her knowledge of reading it. Now I have a copy of my own. THANK YOU!!!!! I look forward to reading it in depth and taking notes on it.
Second she got me a small journal. Which if you can tell when it comes to how horrible I am at keeping a blog. There's really not a big difference to how good I am at keeping a journal. However so much has happened in my life and I really want to keep memories of my life. However I think when it comes to me buying my own journals, I do really good for awhile.... then I think I curse myself and get out of habit and never finish it. I intend to make sure to keep my own curse to my self-bought journals. I plan to fill this journal throughout 2012. So A journal, just what I've been needing to get but have been scared to... I will be going somewhere peaceful as often as possible to be alone and really write. THANKS!!!!
Third and last, but definitely not least..... There is a specific restaurant that we have close to where we live that's great! Not only is the food great, but there is something about going to that place for the both of us that inspires us. We are about to talk about writing and stories and books we've read, etc. etc. etc. I swear that 'something' has to be magic. Because every time we are there, it brings out the writer in me. It makes me want to go home and just type till I can't feel my fingers anymore. We will definitely being going out to lunch soon!!!!
So there you have it. There is a special and amazing connection between best friends. Somehow she always knows what I need. Not just what I want but what I need. She continues to amaze me all the time at how she can sometimes read my mind faster and better then I can. So this post is dedicated to my best friend. I LOVE YOU BUMBLEPOT!!!! ;) (Yes we have nicknames for one another and it's great.)
Until next week:
It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? For the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop.
