An idea for a book came to me last week. Over and over I am told, write about what you know, and I find once I can implement something I know into my writing the process becomes incredibly fun and adds a challenge and excitement to my writing.
The idea for a story seems to come to me on occasion, and sometimes it resonates so strongly that it finally has to be written down. Currently there are two ideas I have that are about truck drivers. One is a romantic story and another a non-fiction piece that will hopefully develop into a series of short stories. My cousin has hauled livestock as his career for as long as I have been around. He has this great dry sense of humor and a great way to tell a story. I want to go and explore his world and share his endless years on the road hitched to a trailer.
Life for me is an endless adventure. There are times this adventure wears me out, makes me sad and brings me great joy. This life that I have been living I am hoping will server me with endless potential stories, articles and maybe even books.
What is your adventure? What has life brought to you? How have you been taking advantage of it?
Don't sit still and watch life pass you by. Get up and dance the dance, the music playing is beautiful, go and enjoy it!
