I could read them all again and then find more to read. Have you ever just allowed yourself to feel what the character experienced. Like stop for a moment and just entirely breathe it all in. Today, I don’t read as many “books” as I used to because I write now. I don’t want to dilute my thoughts with another person’s words portrayed in my writing. You can’t plagiarize anyone else’s work if you have not read it. And if I am going to be perfectly honest, I want to be remembered for my words, leaving those moments that fill you with such emotion that you stop and breathe it in. Allow yourself to appreciate the experience, but don’t take my word for it. Don’t read only my words; read every one. My only advice, stop long enough. Put your phone down, turn off the technology, and walk through the character’s experiences and feelings and their thoughts. The truly beautiful thing is that using your imagination is an entirely free experience. You can hit pause, rewind, fast forward, play again, and stop all at the operator’s discretion. Check it out. Now trending, use your imagination, and see what incredible things you can inspire!
