In my lifetime there have been so many cases of Black American men killed by police officers, I’ve become desensitized. It’s tragic that it’s such a common headline or news segment. I’ve contemplated penning another novel titled “One Man, No Nation” and document my reasons for making an effort to not return to America, for as long as possible.
One of my concerns with such a work is the research. Not the actual research but what the knowledge of such incidents and the potential to affect my mental psyche. I’m still contemplating the work and I’m uncertain if I’ll manifest it.
Today, Tuesday, June, 16, 2020, I am grateful that:
I’m able to see some limitations to my writing. I’m not saying my writing is limited but rather the subjects matter. I’m not interested in writing and developing works that could alter my mental state negatively.
Not all ideas have to become projects. Last year I thought about writing a novel or sitcom entitled, “Barkada.” Not much has happened, other than thinking I should. It’s an interesting work and concept. There are so many options, and with my thirst for perfecting my craft, I may revisit at some time in the not too distant future.
The projects I’ve started are nearly finished. “From There to Here” is lacking and still on the first draft. I’ll work towards making it publishable in July. I’m still deficient with “2020 — A Better View” as well. I’ve got a bunch to finish so I’m not really interested in starting another project.
Are you desitized to the current state of affairs?
What ideas, projects, or tasks have you thought of but not started?
What projects have you started but haven’t finished?
What steps can you take today to finish one of your projects?
Be Great. Be Grateful!!!
