So a friend asked me: why is it called 'one lightbulb at a time?'...while I am environmentally conscious, this isn't the reason. It's much (insert serious music) deeper!! I'm full of ideas, most of them impractical but when I come up with one that works, even if it's only a smidge, then I'll probably want to blab all about it! And that's what this blog is for.
It's entirely for the blabbing.
For instance, once upon a time, someone told me I should write a book. A BOOK!!!!
So, I started writing one. It was awful! Truly awful. Possibly the most hideous, discouraging, far fetched string of sentences, verbs, nouns and adjectives anyone has put together. It was full of swear words...apparently there are better ways of grabbing a readers attention than by verbally assaulting their eyes. Not only was it feral, it was a romance 'story'. It contained love...the kind of love any person would want. Esp the kind of love a lonely, sixteen year old who was never understood, (you're thinking it's about me - I assure you, it's sooooo not!), wants to find in their soul-mate except this story was about a 20-something year old in love with a breathtaking man-child called Ardyn. I wrote about rain at night, inner monologues, streetlamps, throwing keys across dark rooms, falling over because of impractical shoes in front of said man-child...I know, it's horrendous and cliche. I also think it's beautiful but the world will never see it.
Apart from you. Because I just drew you an illustration :P
Now you know how important it is for me to only share the really good ideas...the lightbulbs.
Keep Shining xx
