Day 79: Writers Need A Plan! #dearagent #wewrite

Day 7 of Agent Search:

Dear Agent,

I believe I have found my NEW favorite pen. It writes like the ocean breeze barely grazing my face, with my eyes closed. It’s AMAZING! The words seem to flow beautifully. They just slide on the page. Its the new UNI AIR ROLLERBALL. The package reads, “AIR Bold Ink–WRITES AT ANY ANGLE…” Love it! This means I should be writing everywhere standing, sitting, and even upside down.

Why am I writing about my pen today?

Because like I told my partner who made fun of me because of the amount I spent on the pens, “I AM AN ARTIST! Money is NO object when it comes to my art. Would you tell Picasso not to buy expensive paint?”

It’s all about the pen!

Its all about the pen… and the PLAN!

I have spent the entire morning playing with my new pen and planning 2016! Today is a day of organizing and planning. I bought a new moleskin calendar because the lovely planner with images and quotes and cute poetry does not a writers calendar make!

Today I have a road map.

Finances are in order.

Calendar updated.

And today I begin NEW writing goals. I am doing more than just my prompts. I am waking up earlier, going deeper and am focused on developing my story one scene at at time. In Costa Rica I created a seven page outline for my story and my writing goal today is to talk to my character AYIDA! Today I will explore her deepest thoughts. I want her to tell me her greatest secrets.

I WORK! I WRITE! I STAY WITH IT! EVERYDAY I WRITE! AND I AM REMEMBERING TO SLOW DOWN!

Writing Prompt:

(1) When I am alone… (Ask of your story, character, scenes, symbols or themes every question you would ask about their motivation and intention. What do we want to say?) Set timer for (60 minutes)Check in later. Happy writing!

With love,
