I had myself a curious question ... "Where do dreams come from? From Dream World, of course. But how are they manufactured? In a Dream Pod, silly. But how are they delivered? By a fleet of Dream Weavers fishing for dreamers who are in need of a dream before they go crazy. But what if you can't find a dream deprived sleeper? Then the good dreams you are growing will turn into bad dreams ..." Anyway, this is the domino thought process that is leading me into a world I never expected to explore but find myself lost in.

Anything from a movie, something I read, meeting someone new, a life situation or, believe it or not, a dream. Ya, dreams that wake you up at night hit an emotional nerve and if it hits yours, it most likely will hit others.

For the most part, Marketing. It is an entirely different beast and way of thinking, but it's got to be figured out and done. I have started two other books but have put them on hold until I can get my audio books completed and loaded on both my website and Amazon. It's hard to think of anything else right now but marketing and audio books ... marketing and audio books ...

The journey is long and complicated but boy, does it feel good to see your story in print and others reading that which was once contained only in your head. So don't ever give up or be discouraged, this new journey of yours is worth taking.

Sometimes it's hard to kick troubling thoughts out of your head - an emotion that's attached to your spine and won't let you go. Or a joy too strong to contain. The only reasonable way to reason with what's rattling around inside your head is to sit down and bleed it all over your word document. Also it's captivating to see where your story will take you as if lead by powers unknown.

I read a book or watch a movie in the genre I'm writing in. Others creativeness can give you some ideas of what can be done for your story - a twist or turn moment that can lead you down a different path.
