Rough Edges

What a lovely night and such a perfect time to write.

I have a preference for hand pressed paper. I never write on it; I just like the way it feels. I may have my writing rituals and a specific kind of paper is not one of them. But, I do like to tear the paper when I'm anxious or filled with thoughts. I like thinking how the paper will never truly be whole again. Since, all of those little particles of paper collected on my desk in dusty trails. I look at the edges and I imagine the landscape of my setting. I think about a character who's either rough around the edges or lives out there on the edge.

Although, it's a little late I want you to tear a piece of paper and write on the pieces. Just a simple free writing exercise. But, stare at the edges first and really think. I did this and ended up writing a really heartfelt letter to my friend on a quarter sheet of paper. He wrote back on a half sheet. I think next time I'll write one on a three quarters of a sheet.

So... I'm going to write now. Not on a small quarter sheet of paper. But in a word processing program. I'll leave you to your writings. Please comment and tell me of your results.

Also, don't forget coming soon my blog on Editing and After Effects and another short story or chapter of something.  It's been a hectic two weeks, trust me. Anyhow, look for something soon.
