This is my thought, since I went to elementary school I have liked writing short stories and novels- but for the last ten years I have not been writing as much as I have wanted to. I love to read books where I get drawn into the the details at once and watch tv series where the details are in place and describe the events with drama.
I like this, what Elizabeth Gilbert writes. It fits in to who I am. I did start to write but I had a break. A bit of a long break. But I’m back. I have started to write again and I hope and wish you will read it. I never thought I would write a book but writing helps me get my thoughts out of my head instead of analyzing everything as a lot of people do.
I love to write as a way to give the thoughts wings because I am not that kind of long analytic person. In that case I am not very “girlish”. I have a realistic brain that loves structure and routine and having things in order, numbers and multi-tasking.
I get inspiration from crime books and TV-series like Castle, NCIS and Law and Order and similar series. One of my favorite series is Sex and the City – with the writer Carrie Bradshaw ( Sarah Jessica Parker). For me its all about how she writes, her thoughts in life.
I have some journalist in my family and I think they have inspired me too in some way. They write daily and I can read some of it online and learn more. I have quite close friends who works with media and they also give me ideas. To write for me is not a problem I have so much in my head I can write about so no, that is not my issue. As long as I have my computer and a good cup of coffee I can write until I fall a sleep. I get inspired by words from my friends, what I hear in the store or on the train. I get influence from everywhere. Its just to get it down. Mostly I write it down on paper and than here on my computer.
I’ve just started to write about summer memories from my childhood, maybe it will be something more than just write it down at home who knows. But the things I will share here will be shorter stories and novels.
