I've been itching to write something.
I guess that's a kind of silly thing to say, because I write constantly. This job of mine, where I watch sports and write about it, is pretty cool and I probably write 8-10 stories per week between the games and the preview and features and whatnot.
So, writing, itself, is not the issue, but I'd like to write something a bit more creative, I think.
The only question is, what should I write?
A couple weeks back, I wrote a short story for Sebastian. It was a silly little thing I threw together in about 5 minutes and made up as I went along. The idea was to see how well he was comprehending what he was reading (pretty well, actually). Anyhow, it was actually kind of fun, and the story got rave reviews from Valerie and the kids.
Am I really a children's story writer, though? Seems like i might have to downsize my vocabulary a bit in order to make that one work.
The idea of penning a novel or something of that length is overwhelming, though, so I should probably stick to short stories or some type.
I guess this isn't much of a post; more of a brainstorming session, really. Oh well. It's nice to look around in my head every once in a while. Maybe it will help me sleep a bit tonight...
