We all have dreams and places where we want to be in our
careers. Weather it is a career you work in now or a place where you have just
wanted to be your entire life. Like my writing career. I practice the “art” of
writing and bull sh****ng while staying in college and working as a waitress.
To say the least writing doesn’t pay my bills.
It would be nice for it to do so someday. I love writing
stories however I want to write stories of real people. I love history so I want
to write the stories of the history of the areas I grew up. The phenomenal, the
original lay of the land how the early settlers where. The stories that were
passed from mouth to mouth in backs of coffee shops, Sunday dinners, and the
like. I want the stories of the survivors of a broken America. Those that will survivor
to re-build a nation of the Promised Land.
I want to write a great American Western Novel. That is my
one true goal. I love the old west, I was not meant for this time period that
is for sure. I want to write one great cowboy book. A Lonesome Dove story that
will go down in history. I want to create one last legend. A woman based off
the legend of something like Jesse James and the like. A woman who rode fierce and
who rose forward in the remains of a total Civil War.
I want to write things that make people better themselves. That
give them hope as they lie on the pits of their lives with no believe that it
gets any better. I want to write things for people who believe and struggle to
find their inner peace and inner strength.
I should say my goal with all of this is to find the
patience to wait for it. To pay my dues and earn my place in a writing world.
But anyone who knows me first hand knows that patience is not my strong point.
Never has been and probably never will be, just hopefully a bit better condition
Till then – keep moving up.
