And So It Begins....

It started with a 3 word idea a few months ago as I was reading early one morning.  I wrote the idea in my journal just as I have written many other ideas over the years.  At times the ideas grow to plans and something bigger.  Sometimes they evolve into something totally different.  And some ideas just die in my journal.

Then something strange happened in the middle of a long, rainy night last week while I was laying wide awake in a campervan in the middle of the North Island of New Zealand.  The idea began to grow in my mind and the thought began to form as a story with a message and a plot and characters.  In other words, the idea was now becoming a book.

I have said before that everyone has a story to tell.  Many people have a desire to get that story out to other people in the form of stories, blogs, movies, books or just posts on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.   Some people are content just keeping their stories to themselves.  

I have always thought about writing a book.  But it was always easier for me to talk.   I have been speaking and teaching and training for almost 40 years.  I have written training manuals, some educational books, contracts and other essential items for business over the years.  I was even interviewed for an "autobiography" type book about 8 years ago.

But this is very different.  Characters, plot points, dialogue, chapter cliffhangers and other story lines have rushed into my head over the last 3 days and I am boldly admitting that I am now working on a full-fledged fiction book.  As quickly as I dump the ideas onto paper or my computer more dialogue and plot comes rushing in.  My wife even expressed surprise as I grabbed a stack of paper from the printer paper stack a few hours ago.

"What are you doing?", she asked.

"I need to write some things down and I am going to use PAPER", I replied.

"Oh, have not seen you use paper in a long time", she said.

So I now sit here with multiple pages written on my computer, printer paper with my scatchy notes on them scattered on the sofa, 12 chapters with a synopsis for each completed and ready for the nouns and verbs to be inserted.  And more ideas and dialogue flowing into the brain even as I am writing this.

I think I need more paper!

This is going to be fun.
