Hi my darling readers and writers a true pleasure, truly it is 💜
Now, when I saw how many people were interested in me doing a blog I was like no way!
Really they want me to do this!
I was in many thoughts as one dose, thinking will they hate it I thought,
boo me away! how dare you write this!
What is this crap!
Why you talking about yourself and your characters!
Well I done a deep cleanse and let the negative thought leave at once I suggest everyone do the same and just write what you would like!
Anyway yes I know I was going to start in May, and I was honestly cross my heart and all that jazz.
Then it happend you know that annoying little thing in your creative brain area, where you become restless with sticking to doing one chapter a week for one of your books!
Yes and then it happens the worse of the worse.
boredom!
It is there lingering in the darkness of nights!
Pulling at your brain left to right left to right ....
Left to right...
Left to right...
It is like a dance you did not agree to do but it's there as a writer yes indeed.
So I decided the blog starts now.
After putting my son down to enter dream land he goes, with me in the next room making sure I'm there ready with a bat to injury anyone that dare goes near him!
Do not mess with a mother who reads and watches and writes thriller and psychological horror stuff!
It will end bad for you!
Come on I'm joking but seriously I'm protective of him, his my baby.
Saying this though, I'm too the pointe there is nothing on the screen I can't guess what is happening because I already know and I know the killer and I know how and why yes dark mind there.
Let's take a beat, I like to think a lot of writers who write thriller and psychological horror stuff are the same when it comes to watching series like this right?
I am not alone, there surely we are all there with the tv thinking no I can't not watch this I already know so I read instead.
Anyway this boredom yes with how hectic my life is it's there with writing.
Where you can not keep reading because you are itching to write and I love reading new stories going on journeys and understanding different ways of writing and seeing how talented other authors are I love.
but the itch to write interrupts me.
So stop and start here.
Then there is that situationship that I'm sure I am not alone with,
You have other books waiting to come out of the shadows into the light!
Then you are having discussions with all the characters in your head.
All the echos going crazy in that brain one story then the next story character one after the other, then some new ones pop in the brain and you are like wow wow wow let's hold on a minute here!
Then you tell them all off, the characters, like they are your children to look after and here I thought I only had one physical living breathing child to look after.
Funny that!
Turns out when you start embracing the writer you were born to be and take that into doing it and start self publishing.
Like I self publish really me! still can not believe that, that is somthing I am still like is this happening am I doing this, my friends tell me "Cryptic you got this" and me in my head I am like have I really oh dear me well I hope so.
Then there is this Beautiful Plant-form Inkitt, that is where the characters are really giving me a tough time at current.
Daily every single day all day!
So I tell them!
All of them!
Every story!
Every character off!
"Hold on all of you, one step at a time, give me space! Chill your beans your time will come."
I could not hold out to long and well Purpose let's just say the second book has been difficult especially when I have other ideas coming to mind then I am like no stop let's do one chapter a week get that done for May first my mission to do.
Yes before you ask me, me and the law of attraction have a deal on that one!
We have had talks, seriously we have.
This is how it has gone with me staring out of my window with all my beautiful crystals around me, looking up at the stars at my window telling the law of attraction
"Purpose- The two hearts" will be finished this May not in the next 8 years like the first book no not happening because I have started putting chapters up on here, can't go back on myself there so it's happening may meaning next month.
I am deeply sorry I am so bad with wanting to get stuff out there it's kinder how my brain works let's say honestly it is!
Anyway welcome abroad to what I like to call it Cryptic Edward's blog of Secrets and Character Trails here we go I guess.
I am kinder looking forward to how this goes💜🤔









super funny and promising 😍🖤
I like the stream of consciousness format. 😊
This is great! and yes I can identify with the discussions that I am having with my characters 😅🙈
