Writing for our Lives

When I had free time, I said to myself, "Sit down and write some paragraphs." I sat down. Then do not forget to get up for tea or call me before doing anything else. I know what I want to write. This week focused on the beginning of the Russian Peace Road in 1987. Should I call Leningrad's first city like it is now or is it St. Petersburg now? Well. Please drink a cup of tea. Leave a series of points with the city name and start over again. I will check later. Finally

I looked at the universe and told me to keep moving my fingers. Just write down notes on the screen. A little more paragraph. It reminds me of a Russian young musician's apartment. The laundry room passes through the living room. His blind mother was quietly waiting for her deep brown upholstered chair with her hand on her knee.

Thirty minutes later I allowed to read the page by myself - it was scattered with a red wavy line (oops - spell!) And even more ellipses

I remember what Anne Ramo saw. "The only way I can write something is to write a very bad first draft, the first draft is a child draft, you pour it all out and let it play If the child wishes to enter a truly sentimental and tragic emotional field, you will let him go, which means that you will never get that page. "

So I left: the sentence was not visible, the memory was in my heart, and when I arrived I was concerned about editing. Finally

In this week's writing, we did a wonderful "writing our life" course at "a special place". First of all, I talked to my children about "my special place". This is the secret game room of my childhood friend in her closet. I describe this place as much as possible (we are currently visualizing it) so that they can imagine it. Then I let the children close their eyes and imagine where they think they are special for them, their bedroom or backyard, or something like their grandmother's house. I carefully think about this place to them and make them think about things around them, what they want to do there, make it special, and how it makes them feel

In the early stages, we have created a media blog where we started to write stories about how we can solve our lives and the lifestyles of all of us. I do not know what all these goals are, but we are eager to do something obviously. That is, the pattern failed. We write many times and I think that some of the things we did are very good. But, in fact, this is not what we need. The lack of enthusiasm and busyness in our lives brought about an interruption of almost six months. This is another thing that people ask "What are you doing?" And it will actually be a bit embarrassing as it is not real. Starting with a big dream, it is just pride. Fortunately, we do not call it an exit.
