So Loretta wrote this really nice post about us and it has left me stumped. I'm staring at this blank writing box thinking of what I could say that hasn't already been said (yes, I'm alone in the big, dark space called the "real" world... it sucks by the way). How we met has been covered and then disturbingly separated and how we came up with the idea for the book... so I guess all that's left is to talk about beginning the book??? Anyway here goes...
And so it begins, the epic journey of writing a novel (that sentence should be read by Morgan Freedman). I've noticed there seems to be tons of books, articles, and websites that are supposed to help you finish your book. I guess it is a common problem. I could say I'm worried or nervous about that, but I'd be lying. This is the beginning, the honey moon stage if you will. There's tons of stuff I want to draw and write and I'm really excited to get started. Honestly, with all these thoughts racing through my head I wish I could just turn my brain into a projector and just play all of them onto paper and voila! the book would be done. I feel like I think faster than I write or draw, which makes sense, but I have this weird fear in my head that my ideas for the book are like the rubber mat on a treadmill and I have to keep running faster and faster to keep up and not fall off the back (and not finish) or maybe it's more like a hamster wheel that's just never ending.... either way it's an odd thought. I have those. A lot.
So welcome to the blog, I hope you enjoy reading about our successes and failures as Loretta and I try to complete this book (with or without those help books, articles, and websites). I'm sure you'll get a few laughs at the rants that at least I'll go off on (Loretta too, just mine seem to happen all the time). And if you have any suggestions or comments please feel free to let us know! Thanks :-)

Thank you for your lovely comment on my blog.
