Learning from Authors

I have been reading a new novel by Judge Deveraux whose sound advice about writing has finally given me a bit of hope. This novel was found in the laundry room and because it is a subject close to my own interest level in the past few years I am taking time to digest what this crazy woman has to say...she is a woman who is a romance writer and who has come in contact with a clairvoyant who has told her that she has had past lifetimes, so through this authoress I am learning how to keep notes and write them for my own works..that is how I happened upon this blog because I just went to free journals to see what is available and how they operate...

The name of the book is Remembrance, and is about a woman who is seeking true love, (what else would a romance writer be longing to find anyway), and in the process, has unearthed the fact that she has lived before, and has had a true love in a former life. The plot is pretty simple so far, and I am learning from her how she writes and keeps her notes, which I think is very interesting and smart to do.

I have done that in my own way, never realizing that I could go even further. I admit to being very jealous and selfish with my writings as I do not want them to be stolen away from me so I do not know exactly yet how this blogger system works...If it all goes public or has a place for privacy. I use Live Journal which I had intended to use until I decided to see which other journals might be available and decided to try this one for the heck of it.

At Live Journal I can select a private button so nobody else can read that particular piece whenever I choose to emote about some idea or topic that deserves to be kept secret.

For now, though, the idea is that she writes her notes and keeps them so that at the end she can bring them all together for her great novel..I had been tendering the idea of a houseplan as the best means of putting this book together, but because of Devereaux I am going to try to find a way to keep notes for a book in a place where I can access them.

My first time at blogger so I will see how this will work.
