wannabee

i’m writing my novel
what novel?

the one i never started.
the one i’ll never finish.
the one i choose to believe will fix me;
the same one i know never will.

and if you never start it? said her innocent voice,
if you never finish,
or believe,
or get healed. What then?

“Then,” I said, “you won’t even remember you ever knew me.
So you’ll be just fine.”

and she was. Despite me.

Go on then Dex

and start writing that novel. You never know what could happen - once you start you may never want to stop. Just get started.
Let us all remember that we knew you.

Don't forget a chapter about your blogbuddies

Less talk. More action. Then again, you don't strike me as being a man that lets passion pepper your life.

Dex

What a novel ditty... now get on with it. My philosophy of life is that writing a novel or a book of significance would be the only way to achieve life after death. A book allows people some sort of glimpse at who you were, and allows them to interact with your thoughts long after you have passed on!

Noooo

I didn't mean me. Writing a book takes the kind of commitment and love of writing that i just don't have at the moment. And there's also that 'talent' thing...

Dex

you doos, write the bliksem se ding. Or are you just another woes who hasn't got a story?

Vaypour

shut your mouth before i bestow upon you a snotklap.

Xna Dex

Sies Papa

what kind of a father are you.

...

skryf die blerrie boek, Dex.

(I think you've got plenty of talent. And you don't need to be passionate about writing, just about changing the fucking world).

Yea Dex

what MJ said and the good lord knows we need a change in the world. Well other okes, not me.
