Lately I've felt that I haven't set aside enough time to write fiction (and that was the point of moving to Hawaii). So, inspired by my mother's crazy habit of writing in her journal every single day for 35+ years (I am not kidding), I've decided to write a story a day. Fortunately, I'm not making myself write very long stories. I probably won't post anything longer than a 1000 words. The point of this is to mature my writing. Writing so much non-fiction kind of puts you in this weird non-fiction voice where you sound like thousands of other writers. You conform to be understood - but fiction is also about having a unique voice, and I want to develop mine.

Story-a-Day

I'm going to ask people from my writing group if they want to join, and if anyone out there is a writer I am inviting you as well. Anything pretty much goes. You will have to have a Google account, but who doesn't these days. And you can't be a creepy nut! I've had enough of those. Bleh. Share your thoughts, most types of comments welcome but don't make me turn on comment moderation on this blog as well my peeps!
