Almost like Austen

My journey in writing my first novel.

And even the bonsai trees…

Posted by bukarella on June 22, 2009

I feel like a little kid that can’t pay attention. I am not writing much, but when I am writing, it seems whatever surrounds me in my life jumps straight onto the pages. For example: a Dwarf Jade seed made its way into my life. And now, as I’m trying to make the little thing grow into a respectable bonsai tree, my hero Renoi is sharing his knowledge on the topic with Lily. 

I can’t be the only writer that allows real life to spill in such a shameless way into my story, eh?

    No, it’s perfectly natural to capture something in your work if it intrigues you in real life. Think of yourself as a literary spider, catching fascinating things in your web.
