Inspiration Hits At The Weirdest Of Times!

Good evening folks, 330 words on Penal Earth 3 today. But it’s not that straightforward…

Let’s picture the scene: I’ve just got to work, popped my lunch in the fridge, put my bag away and a few bits in my locker. Including the paper draft of my mech story which I decided to red pen during my break as I feel I need a break from the Mars story. I popped in the toilet, and when washing my hands BANG!!! The solution to the ending of Penal Earth 2 hits like a brick!

For the first time in ages I hadn’t brought my laptop as I was planning on red-penning. So 330 words in my phone today. Been a while since I’ve done that!

I was trying to explain it to a colleague, how my mind works at times. I’ve know what I need to do with the ending of Penal Earth 2, I just didn’t have a thread I could grab a hold of. When I say thread, that’s the same as a feel, or tone for the piece of writing I need to do. I suppose another way to look at it is walking through a forest and then finding the right path to get you to the other side. (Yes I feel like I’m not making any sense, but in my head I am….i think).

Tomorrow, I’m definitely taking my laptop to work with me.
