Having read about the writing process I have found that Maybe I need a new perspective on my work in process. I am dealing with a lot of issues right now. Getting into therapy and seeing a psych doctor too. I know not many have this problem. I do. I was neglected and abused in more ways than one can say here. If you want to know about struggles in life email me sometime. For right now I am not going to finish my NaNo story for NaNo this year. I will however try and finish the story as I have good views of how this story will be viewed by the public when I do get around to publishing it.
I think the Learning to Trust Again story is a good one. One day others who deal with abusive parents in one way or another will know they aren't alone. They need to know that life is good. You just have to get through the rough patches to find the good. Some parents just need help or something to do to help them deal with emotions, feelings and other life issues that come along. I do know from personal experiences that life throws lots of curveballs, but they soon throw fairly normal balls at you that you can deal with. Just get through the rough patches and it'll be good.
I will post on all my blogs at some time or rather frequently. I just need time or make time to post something of interest to my reader. Not sure what would interest them. I like having someone read my thoughts, ideas on writing and the writing process too. I love writing poetry, stories I tend to like try short story writing, but always end up getting them way too long and they become novels or short novels.
Just keep in mind life and how it has it's ups and downs. I would like to find others to do stuff with. Have fun all

Update - NaNoWriMo Story
Today has been a productive morning and early afternoon. My writing on this story I'm doing for my NaNoWriMo story is really going well. I have not written much on it since I started, but back on track today. Also texted my writing buddy about my progress and she wants to go writing tonight. I can get even more work done on this story. I feel good, no great about this story. I know it is hard work writing it. But it is helping me deal with issues I need to deal with. Something like therapy, without a therapist.
I do have a therapist, but not seen her in a while. I feel this story is helping work out some issues I have with things I'm dealing with myself right now. Like being a drinker and not trying to drink too much. I also this story will be great once finished and edited for publication. I sure that going writing tonight with my friend will be good for us. I believe this is good progress to do this. Writing is kind of my life. I want nothing better to do than writing my life away in my stories I think up. Also might be helping me heal some too. Which is a good thing? I hope it's a good thing.
Theresa is my writing buddy, and she is also on my CRHP team too. CRHP is a Christian retreat I did way back, long ago. We meet when we can. We are a group mainly girls except me. They just don't see that. That is my choice though. I am trans, a transgender guy. I just bind my chest and hope one-day o be my true self. WHich means transitioning, but just not now. not the right time and no dosh to do it. Even if my bud Chris is willing to pay for everything. I have to do what is right for our family. Without thinking what it would do to my self-confidence.
CRHP Stands for Christ Renews His Parish. It's a Christian retreat that Catholic churches do with a group of Either Men or Women. They sit around and talk about God, Jesus and stuff. T+You share things about your life and what God plays in that life you lead. I have a Christian blog, will put a link to it on this blog soon. Might find it interesting for you.

New Project - NaNoWriMo (Learning to Trust Again)
Was going to write one story for my NaNoWriMo project. Changed my mind on what to write this time around. I decided on that story I worked all month in October on was not the right one to write right now. I have done a fast work on a new idea and it is coming together nicely. I think this one is the right story to write for my NaNoWriMo story. It got started on the 1st November, but not written on it since that night. I do need to focus my time more and write each day till I reach the end or finish the story whichever comes first. I hope this one is a great one. I never like my writing as I am not very well educated, but people seem to like my poetry, so maybe it might be good, who knows. I hate my work, even though I love writing my stories.

Excerpt
Just as he was running out of time. Principal Riley opened his door. “Come on in. Sorry, it took a while. I was on the phone with someone’s mother.” He looked at Chase out the corner of his eye. “What is the problem?” He asked as he opened his door wide. Nurse Smith walked her and Chase into the room.
“We have a serious problem. This lad is Chase Davidson. He has been getting beaten by his father. Show Principal Riley those bruises.” She told Chase as she put her hand on his shoulder. “You are going to be fine now. No more getting beaten by your father.” She told him.
Chase's hands began shaking, his heart was beating fast like it was a big bass drum being hit a thousand times a second. He lifted his shirt, showing his chest and back, then he showed off the bruises on his thighs. “Dad doesn’t mean it. He is stressed and going through a lot right now. Please let it be left alone.” Chase said hoping this would stop them doing anything more.
“Son, this is very serious. How long has it been going on?” Principal Riley asked. Chase knew this wasn’t the end. It was just the beginning of the end of his life with his dad. He would never see him again. He was frightened.
“What are you going to do?” Chase asked. He knew his heart was never going to stop beating so fast. He was beginning to panic.
Chase fell to the floor curling into a ball and rocking himself to and fro. This made both Nurse Smith and Principal Riley know they had to sort this problem out. It had to happen soon. Principal smiled and sat down at his desk and got onto the phone while Chase just rocked himself on the floor. He felt the tears beginning to fall down his cheek.
Nurse Smith looked at the Principal and got onto the floor and cuddle Chase to reassure him things were going to be alright. “Chase, Principal Riley knows what to do at times like this. You will be put somewhere safe now. I know you love your father, but he need s help. You will not be away from him for that long. I am sure of that. If your father gets the help he needs you will be with him again one day.” Nurse Smith reassures Chase.
“Are you sure they won’t arrest him and lock him up forever?” Chase sobs to her.
“I’m almost positive he will not be arrested if he is truly looking for help. If he is, they will assist him in getting help and getting his life back on track.” She tried her hardest to make Chase understand they are doing it for his health and benefit.
“Well, the social services are sending someone here soon. You will need to wait outside my office. Young man when they arrive. You will be protected by them. Your father maybe gets arrested they are not sure. The main thing is they will look out for you. You father may need a lot of help, they will help him and you sort things out. You’ll be safe now. Wait outside till they get here. No more worrying or concern.” Principal Riley told Chase.
