Daily writing rant: Sex scene, Aha moment, falling in love

So I've been writing this story about some dude called Noah and a chick Kendra and it's being bloody hard work. I kid you not. There is more to writing a novel than getting to characters on board. I need to study motivation, feelings and thoughts. I need to look at scene logic and it aint going well, I can tell you that. Not even saying my grammar is appalling and spell check doesn't even begin to pick up my typos.

So whatever the weather. I feel I'm not writing. I'm just mulling over silly love scenes in the my head. Finally got the Aha moment when they fall in love. Finally. Finally. Oh, heck, yes. I've got that bitch on lockdown. Now I have to destory it all again - push the two lovers apart with conflict, doubts and bad weather. Plenty of bad weather.

There's a badass ex lurking going to give the hero a run for his money. Or the chick. I probably need to revise the chick because she's pretty weak but who cares? Well readers might. I'm getting her on lock down too - nope, I don't mean prison.

I'm building up to the sex scene which I'm trying to think graphical or based on feelings. Well, I think it's more about feelings with this couple. So I use words like dick, cock, pussy or just manhood, it, well endowed. I'll work it out. Some readers like to be turned on others want the romance. So I think maybe just romance.

After all it's only sex.

Had coffee with a fellow writer, went to an exhibition on West Africa: Word, Symbol, Song at the British Library.

There was a massive Disney Christmas tree at St Pancras Station. I thought I'd start with that picture. Implemented Accounting Guru Genius (AGG) method this morning. I mentioned yesterdays she showed me her way of planning. Well it's kinda like project management critical path and working back but in AGG's way. Well the results where what I sort of knew but it's official. I do too much. I've got so much on that I have make very slow progress with anything then end up procrastinating. So I really need to learn and get this planning and time management method under my belt. The only reason is that it's kinda the only thing I actually got. When AGG first did it, I was amazed. It was so impressive. I kinda forgot about it but it's coming up to the end of the year, and I've made great progress with some goals and projects but others are still hanging. Anyway after putting in all my hours I realised I only had a certain amount of free time. Not a...

The Scale (Martha's Way 1) by Mika Jolie

This is one of the of the best romances I've read in a LONG TIME. I loved it! It's brilliant and even writing a review will not give it justice, but I'll try. Just get it because it's that good, positive and uplifting with a good ending. It’s also funny at times. About the story Most women (or me) can all relate to Minka, the main female character, who like most of us, defines herself by her flaws/issues - a few pounds overweight, insecurity about her body, confidence issues (which thanks goodness doesn't stop her from jumping into bed with Jason) and loves her glass of wine with a nice dessert, and likes to feel sorry for herself at times. And she is supposedly in love with an old college crush - the one she thinks that got away (you’ll need to read the book for more details). So we can all relate to her in one way or another, including her stubbornness in clinging to those issues and using them as an excuse not to get on with her life or even make the way...

My Father's Tears and Other Stories by John Updike

Great stories and some really touching. Most were very real so it more a study of human nature and how people grew older. He probably wrote these towards the latter part of his life because the average age of the characters mostly male were about 60 odd years old.
