I apologize for the late post but my head has been hurting all day and I can’t think of another excuse other then honestly I was doing some writing on the anthology again because I got stuck on one chapter of November’s Kiss.

The started with pain in my back and headache. I pushed through it though I wasn’t evening planning on writing on NK but I’m starting to get into the new book rhythm. You know that rhythm. Wake fire up the computer boot up the document write on it add a sentence here and there and then throughout the day and then it’s time to go back to bed.

Anyway, I worked on section two dealing with the relationship of one character’s relationship with their sibling and the close and trust both share and then I had to stop and do something else.

Boy oh Boy.

I’m trying to figure out how to explain this.

Truth.  This book is taking places as writer. I’m really pushing telling the truth about people and relationships even when I want to hold back. Family. Yeah. Family is complicated and simple. How much can you accept from your love ones and the make up of who they are. What does real love look like when it’s accepting of the person and not always what their choices are? In the book, I’m trying to figure out that answer.

Loyalty and trust are big themes I’m trying to convey strongly in the first draft. It’s a trial on my mind and confidence that’s why I think it’s slow going because I’m writing situations that are very dramatic but I’m trying to show brotherhood at it’s heart and manhood at it’s height.

Sorry for a bit of the mystery and round about talk but I’m trying to share more my writing thought process without giving you to much details about NK that don’t matter right now. It’s still just a first draft.  Maybe I’ll fail in the attempt but I’m trying to push myself because I love the message and characters that drive the story themes I care very much about.

P.S.

I really do love the characters in November’s Kiss.
