As I approach writing the second half of my novel (or perhaps novella; is it really a good idea to keep it wordy if the story has been resolved?), I’ve been somewhat grappling with the three-directional pull to either go really “out there,” keep it simple, or try to create something that’ll be a hit. For the first time ever, my prospective audience is really on the forefront of my mind.
It’s strange to experience stress and worry over something that should bring fulfillment, and I must remain mindful and appreciative of the process. To unwind and recharge my energy, I managed to take a few news photos to share here.
Beautiful images . Love the range of colours

Are you looking for commercial or personal fulfillment with your novel? Which is your priority for now?

It has always been about personal fulfillment. My worry though is creating a story that’s not “just for me,” but is able to reach anyone who happens to read it.

It is difficult to second guess. Let your characters lead you.

Love the last shot! And I feel you on novel writing. One moment I’m writing for myself and don’t give a damn what other people think. Then the next I’m writing to be famous and make money. Not a good combo lol
