Well,I started this blog so that it could help keep me focused on writing my book.I had to look up the meaning of blog before anything else.Now that i know wat it means I'm not really sure if i can rightfully call myself one.I mean I thought it was a diary where i could vent out my securities for the day.But i now understand that a blog is a diary but everyone gets to read your thoughts which is ...great i must say because maybe am going to be getting loads of fun ideas for my book here.
You might be asking how is this blog going to keep me focused?Well,if i know dat someone is out there anxious to read something from me,i'll take my writing more seriously.I wouldn't want to let my (future) readers down. I already have a title,not that it's going to be my final title for the book but it's always fun and easier to pick a title first.Am not going to give away the title though;what if someone plagiarises that?
Well,for those in the blogosphere(i just wanted to use that word) who'll be reading my blogs,i just want to say am not writing from home.I don't own a pc or laptop so I work at the local cyber cafe just around the corner.How much i write therefore depends on how much time i pay for.Today for example,because i was i a good mood and because am a good netizen(another word i love.I'd love to know who's coining all these terms),i bought 2hours which i'm in the process of exhausting.I'll try to be as regular as possible but with my class schedule,i might have to pass sometimes.One thing i just noticed is working/blogging/writing from home is really comfortable.For example,while I'm trying to blog,do some research,check my mail and chat with my friends on Facebook(did i say Multitasker on my profile?); this rude surfer is literally staring at my screen,peeping at my chat messages.Why are people so rude sometimes?Can't a girl gossip with her friends anymore? Another thing with surfing in public is u can't go around surfing adult sites which is what Rude Guy is doing right now.No wonder he can't look at his screen.
Anyway I have bigger things on my mind.Like I was saying am going to be providing interested readers with updates on my book and titbits of previews of the novel. I already have a possible title and know it's fiction which means am way ahead of myself.
Like I said I might not be as frequent as expected because of my school schedule (amongst other things like Phineas & Ferb,Ellen Show,Big Brother,Shear Genius...) but i'll try my best.One thing am good at is surprises,so expect the UnExpected!!!
.........30 mins later.
Whew,am back.Had to go after some snacks.This kid just wheezed by with some cool groundnut/popcorn combination...Yum..yum..,i so needed something to eat. Have a few mins left to be online(makes sorry-face),it's so sad.
But I'll be back tomorrow or by evening if I'm lucky.We'll see.
..........5mins later.
Hey guys, as i was about to sign out something just happened.This guy walked in that I've been avoiding so ducked under the computer.But he walked right up to me and said hi.Am dark-skinned but my face flushed literally.Then he gives me a 500FCFA coin and says "use this for your airtime."I felt terrible but,how cool is that?And i was trying to hide from him.
I wonder if that would be good for my story.I could spice things up a bit.I could make myself fall as am about to duck so that i end up embarrassing myself,or i could say my cell phone rang just as i was hiding thereby giving me away.
You see,that's the fun thing with writing;you get to do whatever you want with your characters.You're like the potter and they're the clay,their destiny is practically in your hands. Am getting really good at this i need to get home fast and write this all don before it goes away.
So long guys,u'll be hearing from me soon.
Phineas and Ferb should be on by now.Promise i'll start writing as soon as it's over.
Peace out.
