Point of View




                As I sit down to write this blog I think of a line from an old Kenny Rogers' song. He sits down with his guitar and he’s torn between the things he should do. With my notebook and pen in hand I too feel torn between the bog I should do and the scene I struggled with last night.
                Usually when a scene isn’t working I change the point of view. I wish dealing with people was as easy.  You can easily prod characters in the direction you want them to go. Unfortunately we can’t do that with some people. I guess that’s why I like to write. Sorry I sidetracked the blog.
                When I couldn’t sleep I took another look at the troubled scene. Drinking a cup of hot chocolate, which makes everything better, I changed the point of view and the words are flowing a lot easier now. Last week, I started the second story in the Sweetbriar Series. It is fun getting to know new characters and their situations.
                Until I Met You, the first in the series is on my editor’s desk, with a release date of Dec. ’13.

  1. Rosemary, I'm so pleased you're working on a new series! Glad hot chocolate and changing point of view got your story flowing again. :)
