I've decided to finish Internet HELL, a book I started years ago. It's the story of a horrible false attack on me that started on Facebook in 2010. The story finally has a conclusion -- and so does the book. It's not the conclusion I hoped for, but it's good enough. "Justice is served" and I can write the epilogue.
The book is a factual account of the attack, preceded by a fictional back story about my likely attacker.
I've been writing professionally for over 40 years, but this is my first attempt at fiction. I am enjoying the liberty of having almost no limits. What I write must be believable, even if it's not entirely true.
This will be the third book I've published in a week, and I have four more to finish soon. Do I subconsciously think my time is running out?
This week I've been in bed from about 10pm to midnight, and then from about 6am to 8am.
That sounds ridiculous but I am driven and energized. Writing seems to be more important than sleeping. Writing and designing books seem to produce energy, rather than consume it. Weird.
come to bed

ReplyDeleteNo, you're just obviously trying to vie with that fiction machine, Patterson who's got a stable of ready, will, and able, pulp fiction writers...
Might that be your next step? I'm intrigued by writing under a pen name, so I can really let 'er rip...
