New Creations!

So, I'm in the process of co-writing my first screenplay. It's very new and exciting and actually easy. Maybe it's because I'm co-writing it. The organization it takes to write a screenplay is something I lack. I'm just a jumble, a mess, most of the time, and I like things like that. I don't usually like to sort it all out and put it together in neat little puzzle pieces. So I spray ideas, N organizes them on the page, and we take turns typing it.

I'm ready to finish a new novel. I'm going back to about 20 or so pages I abandoned earlier, and turn it into 200 plus. Like making water into ice. It is the nature of it. Then I will make some use of the mountain of rejections I'm receiving, simply by proving to myself I can do it. Maybe pass it on to the lit agent I work for. Make some use of the connection. Even just for a few suggestions.

How do you write a novel without organization?

Ha! If I've already got it all figured out, what's the point of writing it? I love the discovery, the shock of creating it. Beauty in each word, that becomes each sentence, a paragraph, a page, an entire novel. It's amazing in process and in completion. I see life better when I'm the midst of it. Because I actually pause to see it. Inspiration and life in the smallest of things. I miss that. Out of the grad school rejection funk. Enough. What will be, will be. And right now, that's none of my business.
