Journal entry number two

Today....
  
      Hello,
          My dreams... I've lost them. So I'm going back to the basics. I'm not going to focus on the fact that two novels need to be written as soon as possible. I'm not going to focus on the possibility of the money to travel and live the life I truly crave.... instead I am going to focus on re-igniting the love I used to have for the art of words, of pen to paper so to speak. No parameters, no goals. Just write whatever I can, whenever I can. Focus on the love of writing. Novels may yet be it but I have to stop feeling like I'm behind, stretched and pressured for all the wrong reasons. I know that the love and joy for writing is inside me somewhere, I just need to be gentle with it, like coaxing a wild animal out of it's hiding place. I need to whisper to the wild horse and wait for my dreams to "join up" when they are ready.  -AE
