There are some days when things just seem to flow. The creative juices emit from me so quickly I can't seem to get them out quick enough. I write the ideas down and then go back over them making correction after correction. Something which is happening with my third book in my series.
Other days there is a huge blank void. I have searched for other writers opinions and many seem to have this problem. There is tons of advice out there as to how to get back into it. So much so as I read them I only hear blah, blah, blah. I've found music to be a great distraction to free up my thoughts.
Out of my worst circumstances, I seem to be the most creative. Is it the reaching up and out which does it? Or simply a coping mechanism I have developed to keep sane. I try not to put too much thought into that because I know I would create another issue to overcome. I accept that it's part of me, an essential part of myself, which not many understand.
Recently a name came to me which I absolutely love, Raven. The name actually belongs to a family member. I am unsure yet how I will bring her to fruition, but that's half the fun. Many of my characters I have included in the storylines are actually family members either by name or attributes.
