kinda nice

Readership has plummoted lately, guess because I haven’t been updating all that much… and when I do, it’s random quotations, pictures, or mundane details… well.

I’m writing a character list right now for what may be a novel and I just have to say, seeing what comes out of my mind and onto the page is sometimes a wee bit frightening.

So far I have a misogynist closet homosexual with a Napoleon complex, his wife, an alcoholic, depressed stay-at-home mother who is having an affair with her old high school boyfriend whom she met up with off of Facebook, the boyfriend, who is everything her husband isn’t including tall and not gay, only he’s a player of sorts, and then we have the chain-smoking nagging mother-in-law with a dirty secret, and also the two screwed up teenage kids, and the boyfriend’s other mistress who works as a waitress in the French Quarter and is an exchange student from London…

Oh yegods they are already way out of hand. They’re running amok. They’re out of control. Whoosh, off into the night, doing whatever they please, while I run behind, pen in hand.

Good news is that I already have the fate of the wife planned out and it’ s at least a happy ending for her.

Anyway all I was trying to say when I started this post is that it’s kinda nice to not have so many readers these days… I don’t feel as pressured to write imporant, meaningful updates or at least aim in that direction…

Less pressure=good.

I think I’ll do this for a while, just stream from head to keyboard like this, see what happens…
