I am a lover of movies and books and I simply love the strange and unusual and have noticed in my earlier work and my recent work that even though I try to portray something real, something human I like to do it through fantasy and myth and in fact I love writing fantasy and myth most of all...even though I have full respect for books on subjects that are a part of our everyday life and have enjoyed quite a few of them, fantasy owns my mind and always has.
Poems come naturally to me, when I get into that state of mind the words just flow onto the page and I love it, it makes me happy. Short stories, novels and plays are things that have began to interest me recently...I still love writing poetry and do it quite often but inside my head are tons of ideas bouncing about that want to be told in a different form and more detail than the artform of poetry allows. I began a novel some weeks ago but haven´t worked on it for a while, I have this huge story stuck in my head and can´t seem to get it out as I see it in my mind. My main problem, in my opinion, is discipline. I need to sit down and write no matter if my muse is with me or not, I have to write for the sake of writing... I have to start making my passion my main priority.
I have been writing poems for about 3 years but have only recently attempted to write a novel and it is quite difficult for me sometimes to switch gears like that but I am intent on doing it because I want this story in writing.
I need to tie myself down in front of my book and let the story out somehow.
