What does "verbal vomit" mean for you?

Verbal vomit for me is any means of getting the words that are in your head out, weather that means writing, screaming, praying, or mumbling under your breath. Just get the words out! That is what I want for this blog. I won't make it a secret, I am writing 3 books at the moment, and I am also looking to break into the freelance world. Not an easy feat.

I have recently joined LinkedIn which has given me a huge boost in my confidence, as well as making new connections that should help me get a freelance writing gigs. Sometimes I will post stories here, sometimes it will just be chit chat, and maybe I will do opinion news pieces on current events.

In real life I am on the reserved side and pretty quiet, but if you give me paper, it flows. I do get writers block, my cure for that is to write something not related to what you are writing when the block happens. Write for 10-20 minutes on anything else, it doesn't matter if its garble, just write!

HAPPY WRITING!!!

Here is an extra nugget, I found this article on LinkedIn, and just wanted to share it with whoever is listening (or reading).

The "what if" stories

I have decided to leave all of my "what if" stories that I start on here as "to be continued" at the end of them. There are a few reasons I have made this decision, first is that it leaves something to the imagination for my readers. Second is that I know that when I start writing I tend to be very long winded. I don't want to lay out an entire novella or novel on a blog, so I will keep them semi-short. When I get the writing bug, I can write for hours, and that leads to things, meant to be short, being not so short. I want to keep readers, not scare them away!

I always have several different projects open at once, and I do hop from one to the other often. Just to keep me on my toes and keep things interesting.

I love hearing from my readers. Admittedly I don't have many right now, but I hope to change that by being myself and creating quality content.

So, give me suggestions. I'll bite. As an aside, I may do some opinion based journalism here too, just a heads up.

Breaking out of my shell

I have decided to delve into freelance writing. I know it will be a slow start, but it has the potential to be very lucrative. I can and will write anything, well, almost anything, I can't do poetry. In addition to working on my short stories and my starter novels, I think breaking into the freelance world will be good for me. It will give me experience, and a broader perspective on my writing skills.

My last post posed a question, or rather a request. Give me all of your "what if"scenarios. The what if is meant to get the brain in tune with the keyboard. Here are a few.

• What if you found out your sister/brother were sleeping with your mate?
• What if someone very close to you passed away but you couldn't get to them in time?
• What if you had the ability to end world hunger, what would that look like?
• What if you were the sole writer for a TV drama series, what would your story line look like?

There are a few to start. I will work on those four questions in the coming days and post them here.
