An Author’s Journal: Vanessa as creative

A friend asked me, “How do you even begin to write a book?”.

Good question and one I had often asked myself.

Does one know the end? Is there enough middle content, not boring, but with excitement to bring forth something new and alluring?

All these curiosities I would aim to guess at, reading in awe the many accomplished works by exceedingly talented, uniquely, gifted writers out there that I admire.

As I attempted to write out my own broad attempt, ‘How do I start?’ was the big question first! What was my topic about?

Then somehow, I knew.

Just start.

Like a painting, something will come. Make a fresh mark.

And it did!!
