My Friend Or My Enemy ~ Insomnia

I've got a massive headache today. not quite a migraine yet, and honestly, I hope it doesn't get that far... this is because I only had 4 hours of very interrupted sleep... my brain just wouldn't shut down.

I wish I can balance the need for wakefulness and sleep perfectly, but somehow it always seems to allude me.

Between writing and real life my head feels like an a carousel going round and round with all my thought mixed up and trying to jump free and make themselves heard. while I stand on the outside with a big stick trying to shove them all back.

But in saying that... I know I have said it before. During bouts of insomnia I seem to get the most work done on plotting out story lines... and making notes on all new story ideas.  I love coming up with new ideas... whether or not I get to use them is another story... I just jot them down and put them all in a folder for later use.

What's Up

Well yesterday saw me send Hidden Hearts 2: One Last Kiss Goodbye (decided to keep original name) to my patient beta reader: James A. Who will not go mad at me for all the punctuation mistakes... I'm getting better I swear. Actually as weird as this sounds this book has been really fun to write the second time around. James will tell me if it is too confusing. as some parts I was like what the fuck did you write that for, and how the hell did it ever get published.

Now that I've found my synopsis notes on The Lines of Marsden, #3: You Make Me Die In Pieces. To be honest I'll be glad when this one is done. It's probably the hardest TLOM book to write to date as it's kind of changing the story line a tad, but I'll be bale to finish not, if that makes sense? In the end we'll end up where we were always meant to be, we're now just taking the scenic route to get there. But I hope you enjoy the ride anyway. I know I have enjoyed writing it, even if at times it has driven me nuts with no possibility of returning to normal. I'm more world/realm building in this book.

Then I can work on the following:

These stories are listed in no particular order... I just know I need to work on them all and have most of them done by the end of June if I want to keep up with my writing schedule for 2015. And I plan very much on reaching my 2015 goal.

My Books ~ My Thoughts

I've been up since 4 a.m. and this time I'm happy to say not from insomnia—I'm glad that little bugger isn't around to annoy the crap out of me. The truth is the voices in my head just wouldn't shut up. so I decided it would be best to get up and write my demons out—not that I'm actually writing demons. Rather I'm trying to finish Hidden Hearts 2: One Last Kiss Goodbye... Actually I have a question about this story on my WORDPRESS BLOG feel free to stop by there and leave me your thoughts in a comment. I'd really like to hear everyone's opinions as I personalyy can't decided on what would be best.

Other than that I've been:

1) Plotting out Hidden Hearts 1: Harder & Harder to Breathe.

2) Plotting out DRitC 2015: Hollow's Trouble.

3) Typing up and changing parts of The Lines of Marsden 3: You Make Me Die In Pieces.

4) I made myself a new header for this blog & one for my Facebook Author Page.

DRitC 2015: Love Is An Open Road

←This is my picture (MC 2)

This is my prompt ↓

Dear Author,

Get this, I’m no romantic. I don’t even believe in love. Hell, I don’t even have time to think about those sappy things. Love? Ha, not for me. But the thing is all of it went to hell because of him. Okay let me be clear, this is how it went down. Me and my gang was at this fancy party. Why? Well, me, I’m what you call a thief. We steal things. Precious pricey things. And we do it with such class you won’t even notice it.

Anyhow, we wanted to steal this diamond necklace. It was so damn pricey I thought it would be the job for ages. I knew if it went right we could be legends among thieves. What I didn’t know was, well, honestly it turned out that I knew almost nothing.

Like, first, there was a guy at this party who was insanely good looking and all that stuff. But strange thing was I was so attracted to him I couldn’t concentrate on the mission. I almost missed seeing the necklace his date was wearing.

Second, it felt like knew him from some where, like from another life, and somehow I knew he was a vampire too.

Third, there’s someone/something else out there trying to get the necklace from his date.

Fourth, suddenly girl with the necklace went missing, and he got wounded.

Fifth, him being hurt made me hurt too, that emotion felt so alien to me, but I knew it was love.

Sincerely,

DareDevil
