I’m going to write a book on storytelling some day.
It was one of those random thoughts that just kind of floating through my head tonight as I was brushing my teeth. It’s something that seems likely. I just love talking about it so much, I love listening to people talk about it, I love reading about it…story is my great obsession in life.
I finished “reading” The Hero With a Thousand Faces last night. That probably has something to do with it. Joseph Campbell, there’s another dude who was obsessed with storytelling. I’m not saying I’m going to come up with a concept like the “mono myth” or the “hero’s journey”…but some day, when I fee like I have enough experience and training…I’m going to write about something.
I had a great day at work today. This first phase of the project is coming to a close, and everyone is happy with it. That’s a relief. I had two good writing sessions today, too, because I got to work on time, and I finished on time. That’s obviously a key for me. If I can regularly get out 2 hours a day of focused writing…the world is my oyster. It’s all doable.
Got to spend some time in the evening with the Ho as well! We self-taped an audition for her, and then we watched Dogs. It was the last episode of this first season, and it was about adopted dogs and rescue programs in the US. SO. GOOD. Uuuugggghhhh. Love our pups. They’re both rescues, if ya didn’t know. Now ya do.
Anywho…it’s sleepy time. More work to do tomorrow.
Good night!
