So today at camp, and across the world is Tell the Truth Day and Global Forgiveness Day! The two couldn’t go more hand in hand. Seeing as I can not lie today, (not that I ever do, scouts honor!) I will admit that I did not write at all yesterday! But that is not to say I have not worked hard on Mo Thuras! I did some important reading, and I also managed a bit of brainstorming and feel like I am “in” my novel once more! So in honor of Forgiveness Day, I am going to forgive myself for not having written all weekend, and yet today. I am going to brush myself off and get back to work tomorrow!
As an added bonus, what if one of your characters could not lie? Or maybe they have a whole day, or week, or month that they have to tell the absolute truth! What would that do for your story? For the character? What about a character that always lies! Or one who never forgives anyone? Some food for thought! I look forward to hearing if any of that appears in your camp novel!
I’m forgiving myself for being lazy today.
We all need those lazy days! They are important to feeding the creative soul!
