When you go to write a book, the book ends up writing you!
That's what happened to me in 2004. I set out to write a book about sailing across the ocean, which I did in 2001, and it turned out that the inner creative force got stronger and stronger that I ended up seeing and writing out a stream of images that emerged from the unconscious! Though the book was going to be about sailing across the Pacific, I ended up sailing across the inner ocean! Anyway, the book is called…See More

- Hello again. Long time since I last managed contact .. I am sorry. I did visit your website Adriana, and am taken with what you do. Have you noticed new Group: Spiritual and Inspiration Wrtiers?? Think you would find a place there. Hope so.
One writer, Janet Connor, has written Writing Down Your Soul, which may interest you, as she was first influenced by Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way .. which I know you have mentioned.

Bernice L. McFadden said… - Dear Book Lover:
You may not know me or my work, but I am the national bestselling, award winning novelist of six critically acclaimed novels who has been twice nominated for the Pulitzer Prize in Fiction.
On Jan 9th, 2010 my debut novel, SUGAR will celebrate its 10th anniversary and in order to commemorate this milestone I am campaigning to sell 10,000 copies between now and that date.
“Bernice L. McFadden's first novel begins with the brief, poetic description of a crime so startling that the reader is helplessly drawn in, as if a bright red door stood ajar on a bleak and forbidding house. Pearl Taylor's daughter, Jude, has been found murdered and mutilated near a field at the edge of town. "The murder had white man written all over it," writes McFadden. "But no one would say it above a whisper. It was 1940. It was Bigelow, Arkansas. It was a black child. Need any more be said?" In the years that follow, Pearl catches sight of Jude in so many strangers that when Sugar Lacey comes to town and sets up her unwholesome "business" in the house next door, she doesn't know whether to believe what she sees in Sugar's face: a striking similarity to Jude, dead 15 years. In her sedate but supple prose--rising at times to a light, unforced lyricism in the description of landscape or character--the author perfectly renders the closed and protective society of a small Southern town, the superstitions, gossip, and prying.”
I’m asking that you purchase a copy of SUGAR for yourself, a friend or family member. And yes, KINDLE purchases count.
If you could help spread the word by blogging, twittering ad Face-booking my campaign, it would mean the world to me.
Peace & Light,
Bernice L. McFadden

Anne Liu replied to the discussion 'Where to Begin...' in the group Your First Novel"Welcome to the fun!
I think the great thing about being at the beginning of your first draft is that the first draft DOES NOT HAVE TO BE GOOD. It just has to get written. Finishing even a crappy first draft is a huge accomplishment, so…"
