thinking on a thought


Which isn't all that new for me...

I have been reading a lot of YA bloggers, and Adult ones, but I always like the YA ones better for some reason, not idea why but I do.

anyway, I find that when I'm writing, or maybe it's because I want to get into the role of an author, and I have a few YA books that I want to get out there--maybe it's more than they are more open about what they want, maybe it's because no one listens to them that they feel the need to over share on topics that really should be shares. Maybe it's just because that's what teenagers do. 

Who really know, and like I care, I love it. I love how enthusiastic the bloggers get about subjects related around books, and since they have just been doing banned book week, it's like there has been more thing spoken about what there is already on the shelves and what they wish were there, or weren't. And this is where my problems lie.

What I’ve learnt


About sex...

Here’s the thing, most of the time writing is so simple you can’t believe you had ever had to struggle. You have your characters; you have the setting, the things you want to happen between them. For me, the conversation comes out of nothing; I can’t think on conversations, they just have to flow. But then you get to a point, you want to put something in but, and here’s the kicker, you need it to actually make sense, or maybe it’s more that you want it to have a real life hold to it, and so then comes research.

That’s the thing that I have been up against for the last couple of months, I want to write an adults romances novel. And yeah, you think, no sweat it’s all about falling in love fast and forever, making sure there’s something in it that hits the readers hearts, and more so sex.
