So I have my Epic fantasy series that I have been working on for years. And I do mean years. It is my baby. With all of the time and energy I've put into making it exactly what I want it to be. I decided to test the waters with something else. Something that I won't be crushed if it is not liked.
For anyone that knows me, I'm not an avid reader. I never have been. I once told one of my siblings that I didn't read because I didn't want it to cloud my own creative mind. And her response was it's not like you can come up with an idea that no one has had before. And although she is not wrong, I still don't like to read.
The one exception, which I don't know if it is good or bad is Romance. Not sappy, hardcore stuff. Because well, I have a really good mind and can see things pretty clearly. I enjoy, seeing the naughty scenes and can read them anywhere.
A few months ago the idea came to me, maybe to branch out, get my feet wet. So I started to dabble in Romance/Fantasy. And although I don't have the same heart and soul into as my Epic Fantasy series, well I still enjoy it. And if I'm being honest, I've read some pretty shitty romance just to get to the good sex, so I'm hoping that I can write both. At least for a little while, to give myself a little courage for the big stuff.
Until next time. (seeing as I'm not super great at posting things, but I've got 4 kids and a full time job, cut me some slack. )
