I’ve been working on my latest writing project for a little over a month and am happy to report that I have completed Chapter One. Yay! Only nineteen more chapters to go.
Regarding the working title and the subject for this project, I find it funny how many hits I have found for the words “Simple Complication” and how often the subject matter on those hits relate to dating and marriage. I’ve always considered dating and marriage to be complicated and only for the strong of heart (literally and figuratively). Sometimes you get lucky (like I have) and have the love of your life thrust into your lap, but that is another story.
I promised some information on this project… so I’ll give you a little peek at what I’m working on…
“A Simple Complication” revolves around a 30-something woman named Jennifer Altec. She has lived by society’s rules, but has always had a secret desire that will never be accepted by her family or friends. After a major life-altering confrontation she reevaluates her life and is introduced to some new friends. These new friends not only support her views, but live and explore that lifestyle to an extent that Jen has only dreamed of. The path Jen is set on will put her into the spotlight and gain national attention. What is Jen’s secret? How will she deal with it? What will her family have to say about it?
The questions and the controversy related to the very nature of the fictional society I have created for this story will provide fodder for serious and heated discussion for quite some time. I have experienced this firsthand when I shared some of the details of the story with some friends. Their reactions were varied and passionate. Upon seeing that, I knew I had something special… something that had to be shared with the world.
So, back to my writing now… *cheers*
