Author bio:
“Write me down,” the idea said, “Do it before your brain turns into mush.”
“But I'm not a writer!” I protested, “I haven't written anything since creative writing class in college, and that was years ago. I work in a lab! I have real responsibilities!”
“Please try,” said my characters. “We have so much to do; the world needs saving, we want to get to know each other better...we want to fall in love. Please!”
And so, with great trepidation, I started writing and haven't stopped since. The nights spent in front of my computer, lost in the imaginary world my words create, are the most treasured hours of my day. Sometimes they are the thousand words (give or take!) that keep me sane.
50,000 words? Literary abandon? Sign me up!
