One Person’s Vision

Just a quick little post to mention a couple of things. First off, I just watched the somewhat recent documentary following David Lynch called Lynch (one). As some of you know, those of you that know me, he is my favorite director. Just in the few personal-type things I’ve watched, and read, I have learned so much. He never ceases to amaze me by what he says. War-N said “I wouldn’t like to work for him!”. I can certainly see why. I wouldn’t want to either. At least, not as a fellow director… someday. When someone has such a strong idea, drive and ideal of how things should be, nothing will do but what’s inside that person’s head. No room for company in there, and there shouldn’t have to be. One person’s vision is just that ONE person’s vision. I’d like to think I will have that kind of vision one day. The kind that makes everyone around me want to help me get that vision and do whatever it takes. No matter who is around me, I want to do the work and do whatever it takes. I have great support already. With that, I can go very far.

In other creative news, I’m very happy to report that I am now up to 14 chapters in my “Days with Indigo” novel/story. I don’t write everyday, as I should, but when I do it’s so easy and gentle in my mind. It isn’t hard at all. I do often wonder if that means anything… like if it’s easy, it’s not good. But, I’m choosing to ignore any such thoughts and just do what seems to be a very pleasant thing for me to do at this time. I’m so involved in the characters and the story and this world I’m creating seems so absolutely real to me. I see it happen as I type… like a movie. I have always seen the scenes as they come to me. No problem. it will translate very easily when that time comes! I can sense who is going to talk to me on each chapter and it’s so intriguing and lovely. I just visualize and type as fast as I can. Editing comes later :) It’s quite interesting. On certain days I’ll think “Well, I miss Indigo today, so I’ll write something to do with her.” and the story just comes so naturally. I’m really loving it! I often get so busy with tons of projects (as a LOT of you out there know!), and while I do have more than the novel/story going on right now, I feel I’m so involved, yet separated, with this idea. It comes back to me whenever I need it and doesn’t go away if I can’t get to it at the time. Not much else like that happens to me. Sure, I get ideas for pictures, videos, short films and music, but it often goes away as quickly as it came. Not with Indigo. There’s something magick in this new world for me. I can’t wait to see how it unfolds!

In closing, I just wanted to thank War-N for everything he does for me everyday. Also, thanks for helping me proofread “…Indigo” as it forms. It absolutely thrills me that you like it as much as I do!! Now that we’re thinking “logic-ally”, I think we’re both on a great path. The best part is, our pathways run side by side.

Much Love to Everyone!

    Sometimes if it is easy it means it is VERY right. Sounds like you are tuned in to something great! Enjoy the process – I’m wishing you the best with it and hope to read your finished story some day.
