Ravings of a Paranormal Author!
by Terry Spear
I'm at Anna's Book Blog today with a free giveaway!!
And I reached 86,000 on Jaguar! Just writing the final scenes, 4,000 words to go to reach word count, although it'll probably be longer once I flesh out the final scenes, and voila! It's a book!
Writing is fun, but it's also hard work. Do you realize all the trouble my hero and heroine and their sidekicks get into that I have to get them out of???
I mean, jeesh! You'd think people would be grown up enough to be responsible for their own actions, but no, I'm always bailing them out. And then what happens? They get themselves into another mess!
You know, I have enough to deal with--real life problems, without having to take care of hunky wolves and hunky jaguars, and hunky Highlanders, and hunky cowboys--truly!
They really need to chin up and deal with these issues on their own. Write their own stories. Then when I wake up in the morning, and before I have to go to work, I can just read about how successful they were. Or weren't. But THEY would deal with it, not me. And they would only have THEMSELVES to blame for the messes they get themselves into. Not me!
*sigh*
I guess it's just my giving nature. I can't stand to see the messes they get themselves into, and I just have to give them a helping hand. The thing of it is, they're not always happy about the way I help them out!
Ever find that in real life? You give someone a lending hand, and they're not grateful?
What's the world coming to?
:)
Still, you look at those adorable jaguar cubs and think, yeah, it's worth it!
