A month in I am at chapter thirty-five. It is the first time I have a plot structure in place before I started writing. I know where I am going, I know where I am. I have just written the midpoint. Act two is on its way to the dark night of the soul. The all is lost moment. I hope the real world doesn't have a plot.
Ahh, Bertus, I can totally relate! I'm a world builder too. Everything I write seems to want to grow so big, it becomes overwhelming. Sometimes I get lost in my own worlds... I have written several novels that nobody's ever read..., some belonging to the same fantasy world. It's such a wondrous experience to be dragged along and sucked into a world through words, to witness an emerging world made up entirely of words on a page...
My non-fiction seems to be more popular... but who knows, one day I might publish my novels on substack too.
The world you are building sounds intriguing. I love the way you envisage its impact on your readers. I'm ready!

So looking forward to reading this. I have no doubts that the seeds you water will birth world’s of discovery.
Thanks, I can't wait to share more....
Your honesty with oneself and how that feeds your creativity is always so refreshing.
A wonderful description of what a writer strives for. Looking forward to your latest book.
Thank you Virginia, you're in! When it gets printed you'll be on one of the pages.....
