More Fiction
It's funny. I feel like I've been accomplishing more lately with my fiction than my poetry. Odd poetry comes easier to me than fiction, but it's been one rejection after another. I just finished the first draft of my story I'm titling "Drive". I've been wanting to write this story for a long time now and could never wrap my fingers around the story structure (I still don't think the structure is definite). My story, "Graveyard Footsteps", has just been accpeted for publication. This story was a struggle to write. Took over a yeard for not even 1000 words and I still wasn't proud of it. But after a few drafts I knew it was done whether I liked it or not. Apparently someone out there likes it.
I do wish I could write more fiction. That's what's going to get me further. But nothing flows. 100 words a day to me is accomplishment and that's horrible. After all these years I still can't get the grasp of "showing" instead of "telling".
One day I will find the key to unlock the door. I feel it's out there somewhere...
