On A Brighter Note...

I read my last post and realized how awful I sounded. I must admit that not being able to write has given me some thought time.

I have developed my story idea that I was talking about the other day into at least another three books. That makes the total five now. And I have decided that main character, Blue, is going to start out not giving a damn about her own people but through personal lose, due to her insensitivity, she gains a bit of a conscience. She learns to love not only her own people but herself, whom she has been running from since she left home.

Each book will contain the five parts of her journey to restore her people and unite them as a cohesive civilization again. In her first adventure she kills the queen. The other books that follow will be about her gathering the four other fractured kingdoms under her leadership and wiping out the "fading". I am very excited about it really and I believe that is why I am so upset about not being able to use my Word Perfect. I swear, if that stupid program ate any of my stuff I will tell everyone I know what a piece of garbage that program is.

Sorry. Irritation level rising. Doesn't help that I am sick. I have a stupid summer cold. It's been so damn hot here that being outside for any length of time is unbearable. I believe I got heat exhaustion the other day when I took my daughter fishing. Came in from the heat, took a cool shower, and then ended up with the chills. I'm paying for my air conditioning now. Head hurts, nose stuffy, neck stiff and of course, no sleep.

Anyway, back to Blue. I have found lots of interesting stuff on the net and have had quite the adventure reading. I firmly have my plot in place and olny need to start writing scenes down. Okay. I will skip the complaint about the computer again. But I can always write it down and if worse comes to worse there are always the computers at the library. I can use their Microsoft Word programs - no problem! I'm half tempted to break out the master card and buy myself MS 2003. Very tempting. No. I have house taxes due.

Sigh. I want to be rich damn it. You know, my brother suggested I share a room with my daughter and get a room mate to share the expenses with. But who? I don't want a stranger in my house and I am so damn picky about smoking and drinking. I don't mind someone a bit messy but then there is that safety issue with having a child.

Nope. No roommate. I will just have to suffer. Back to Blue.

Well, I think I will do some more surfing (LOL. I typed suffering instead of surfing - shows my mental state) and check out some more websites for my story. I will post some of the more interesting ones. One freaky site is called "Order of the White Lion." It is like a religious school of thought and they teach eclectic religious and social idealism; worth a look see if nothing else. Here is the link.

You will have to cut and paste the link. Sorry. The system is not working well and I am having trouble getting it to add a link. Couldn't get it too post at before. At least now I can do that.

Happy surfing all!
