marmalade skies

formerly untold

October 24, 2007

I read once that the most compelling reads are the ones most honest - Writers who speak about the truth without resorting to long paragraphs proving it, stories that tell what's what minus the adjective overdose, words so powerful they don't need to be in a sentence.I don't claim to be that kind of a writer, but someday I wish I could.

I wish I have time to waste to draft stories, create faceless characters and spin plots however amateurish. I look forward to finishing anything written be it a short story, an article, a manuscript or an epic! I look forward to forcing my sister to read it and hearing her criticize it so much I bleed. But more than anything, I look forward to knowing that behind that piece is a story I fully know of, the characters I deleted, the scenes I hid and all the other twists and turns I can only hope the reader would discover and relate to me, my thoughts, of things in my life that happened and didn't happen.

Writing is my first love and like any other firsts, i wish to never forget about it. If I have all the time in the world, I will (sleep first! heheh! then)  write and write until I can write no more.
