Rant it Out...

Rant it Out...

     So there's not much happening in Quincy's world today, he's kinda stuck... It might have something to do with my brain still feeling fairly mooshy from SatUrday night, an excessive end to a fabulasticular weekend; that and the fact that I keep going off on tangents and losing my scope. I've never attempted to write short stories before, and in turn have never been instructed on their structure or what not, so I'm having trouble figuring out how deep to delve in to things that need mentioned in one story, but are actually stories all their own. I find myself actually mentioning that something-or-other is a story for another time, and then writing four paragraphs on the subject anyway... And don't get me started on dialogue, what a clusterfuck that is... When I'm writing like this, it's essentially all dialogue, just me, talking to you; so writing in the third-person and trying to decide who says what, when,  is blowing my fucking mind... In the story I'm presently working on, there are roughly 3500 words and barely a line of dialogue, and that shit's not gonna fly, so I gotta figure it out... So in lieu of trying to deicde how deep to get in to the details of Quincy's first dysfunctional love, which is only partially pertinent to this particular story, I decided my writing for the day would be to rant it out... I think it's good, and I feel a little stuck, but not the least bit discouraged...





     I must say that I feel fucking great... As January comes to a close, I know that good things are coming, and that my life and the people in it are good. And I am not the only one, other people are feeling it too in their respective plights and travels and such. And if you're not, you can be, all you have to do is make the decision, know  it... If you start to feel stuck, rant it out, chico, and be done with it, and keep on with it...

 Good day to you, people...
