So it is Wednesday, everything at work seems to be going crazy, and i’m falling behind even more! I didn’t get to finish my 5,000 words to catch up, and a combination of the wedding weekend trip, the daylight savings hour, and the extra work at my day job are contributing to a level of fatigue that I had not known since… well, I don’t remember what at the moment… too tired to think that far back, but you get the gist. I don’t think that it was helping that I haven’t had the time to work out lately either (or even walk around the block, appx. 2 and 3/4 miles, as I had been doing a few times a week). So with that in mind when i came home, I went for my walk and i’m feeling a bit energized… for now at least. Although each night i’m writing at least 800-1000 words… I must be behind about 7,000 words at the moment. So I can’t wait for the weekend where I can catch up on my sleep and on my writing. I’ll try to give an update tonight after writing… or I may just write what I can and aim to make it up during the weekend. Maybe i’ll use this time to think about a new character and what they want to get revenge on someone for… WHOOOPPPsss… I let out a bit of my plot! (I meant to do that!)
So as long as I did let me ask for some feedback. I want to know how some one wronged you once. How bad you felt (what actions did you take, what was your behavior, etc.), who the person was to you (boss, husband, girlfriend, stranger), and IF (this is a BIG IF!!!), but IF you can do something to this person… plot a plan of revenge to make them pay for what they did… or just to give them a taste of their own medicine… what would you do to them. (It could be legal, illegal, funny, stupid, mean… as long as it has meaning behind it!) I have a few ideas of my own… but I need a “spark” to fire up my imagination for my story, and to have me writing at full blast!
So if you could comment back I would appreciate it. So here are the 4 questions, just cut and paste, and put in your reply:
1)Something significant, and life changing, that was “done” to you. Either directly or indirectly.
2)Who was this person and what do they signify to you. Do you still harbor feelings of anger/injustice or have you forgiven them?
3) If you’ve forgiven… explain why. If you haven’t (and yes… this is what I needed some feedback on), what would you LIKE to do to them to get your revenge? The more complex and significant in comparison to what they did to you… the better.
Now of course… I am looking for something more… “creative”. Anyone can want to kill someone or just punch them… but I want to take the story further than that. What kind of plot/plots would you concoct? So let me hear it people!
