Hollywood is so backed up, but who you like to play your life story

Maybe mine would be Anne Hathaway,

but I don’t think she can dance.

oh heck, nobody could get my life right. ha.

Brad Pitt?

George Clooney?

yeah. I never liked the movies where they had 2 or 3 different characters according to age,
but I guess you have to if you’re doing the whole life.
I don’t know enough about child actors that I’d like doing me.

Drew Barrymore. She’s older than me, but I’ve been told I look like her since I was young. From the kid in ET until now.

But, I’m not sure my life story would be great to watch or just super sad. I don’t know, maybe it could be okay and I’m just in a bad mood. I’ve tried writing a book that’s fiction, but based on my life.

yeah, memoirs are really big right now.

I guess you can see it in all I’ve done it all my writing, just mostly bits and pieces, and then always an embellishment, so you don’t if it’s real or not.

Well, after all it is fiction! I’m allowed. ha.

Have you written something long before? I’ve never made it book length and my mind is so scattered, all I have are these fleeting parts. I’ll also write the same scene like 5 times, all in different ways. I did make a way to make the sad at least bittersweet with a hopeful ending. My mind just can’t seem to get it out linearly. I need a co-writer or something who can help organize. I want to write something with multiple streams. I’m not explaining it well.

I can totally see that working,

Try writing an outline first. I just write a series of sentences. Then flesh out the story.

Like this…

Character runs away

Gets in to trouble

Meets and is saved by second main character (name)

Rests and gets to know (name)

Trouble comes

The two escape to a hideout

And so on.

yeah, especially if you’re writing a long piece, or novel.

the cool thing though is Keats, Negative Capability,
not really knowing while you’re writing how it’s gonna turn out.

it’s more magical that way.
