When it comes down to storytelling, the spark from a big idea fuels the writer’s imagination to create fiction with conviction.
Fuel for thought:
It’s no guarded secret, the big idea behind Etta’s Fishing Ground, my novel in the genre of Contemporary, took hold when I happened to scroll by a controversial post on social media pertaining to the topic of marital infidelity. Essentially, the question was, "If you discovered your best friend's husband with another woman, would you tell your bestie?"
The big idea fueling my current Contemporary work in progress sparked from a local news item pertaining to parents who jeopardized the safety of their child by exercising poor judgement. Of course, I’ve taken the big idea to go off on my own tangent in an entirely different direction.
I’m at the last stretch in drafting chapter 58 (1090 words thus far). One or two more chapters left to go.
*May the spark from a big idea fuel our creativity. My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
