If that’s your thing, happy fall!!

Yes, you read that sentence correctly. I have started writing a pumpkin spice enema story. It’s actually starting to really turn out nicely now that i’ve rounded the 2k mark.

I’ll be for real, it took me a minute to come up with the premise of this one, but now that I’ve got that notion by the tail, it’s really playing out!

The other thing I’m playing with now is dialouge. That feels really good. I had an idea where I took one of my openings I had written and redid it as a phone conversation.

I could reveal all the same information, but in a way that wasn’t “Bryan did this and Bryan did that.” It was more, “Bryan asked for 17 cases of caviar to be delivered to the west barn—what could be going on.”

I hope that change is pleasing. I find it extremely pleaseing to write.

Tictok is becoming more of a habit. I recently read that I need to post at least 10 times a week to gain traction. That’s twice a day for five days straight. Interesting.

I’ve discovered that when I write, I write messy. It’s like my words are filth and I’m in a pigpen trying to get myself waist deep in the muck. Many words are spelled incorrectly, capitalization and puncutation are rare, and the idea on the paper is struggling like a root bound plant. I’m super bad at writing a small paragraph with the germ of an idea, abandoning it for the sake of speed, and then going back the flush it out later when I have a moment.

This is a section from newest Betty. At least it’s is outlined and ready to go. Just need about 3k words and then I’ll publish. I was hoping that would be this week, but lo—I got both my flu and covid shots yesterday and now, I feel like fish poo.
