Writing Progress & Changes

It is October 2022. I finally finished writing the rough draft for my third novel. I started editing it, but I just seem overwhelmed. My first two novels were easier to do, maybe because I was younger and I had more energy. I realized my 3rd novel is all over the place, moving in different directions, which might work out for a murder mystery novel, but I need to organize everything to make it flow right. I feel stressed.

I took a break last week at the new OCMA building. I also went window-shopping at SCP. I need to find new places to check out. I am tired of routine. 

2022 is almost over. And, I am working on this third novel very slowly, not sure about the direction or plot, but mostly freewriting interesting ideas I can work with. There appears to be too many characters coming and going, but most of these characters are secondary characters; so, I guess it doesn't really matter. 

I am still doing meetups--walking meetups and book meetups. I finished reading Wicked by Gregory Maguire. It was an interesting novel, similar to a twisted soap opera. I felt sorry for Elphaba and I didn't really see her as evil or wicked. Her sister, the East Witch, isn't really wicked either; she was actually very religious, while West Witch was an an athiest and animal rights activist. West Witch was cursed with a green face, while East Witch was cursed with being born without arms. The story is filled with corruption debauchery, affairs, and witchcraft. Glinda and Elphaba were actually roommates in college, and they eventually became good friends, but Glinda ended up betraying Elphaba because she collaborated with the fraud, corrupt liar Wizard. 

Now, I am reading one of the books I bought during the last day of the Borders closing sale. 

Yoga Meetup is going downhill. I think the people there are moving in different direction, and not many people are showing up. 

I am still going to the gym. I feel better when I work out. 

I need to move forward in some other direction, but not sure where...

PUSH THROUGH THE MURKY DARKNESS TOWARD THE LIGHT

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE MONEY!   Follow the rabbit hole on the above blue link subtitle to my recent enlightenment journey via internet research and local observations.  Meanwhile, I finally finished fixing my MX-3 transmission. To recap, on March 26th, a black Range Rover had backed into my car at a very busy parking lot, in front of Trader Joe's. I was very careful and vigilant, watching my surroundings because I had noticed earlier, when I first arrived, before I entered the grocery store that the area was busier than usual. There was also a draining energy, due to the Spiritual War, trying to push me back and slow me down, which I now feel it was positive for me in this case because I was slower than usual, waiting in my car for a while before backing out from my space very slowly. It was also obvious that the Range Rover had backed out fast because I I felt a sudden thud against the back of my MX-3, it felt like a sudden shock, like a WTF moment. I opened my door and got out o...

Mexican Supermodel Mysteriously Goes Missing in August 2009

Image
  Tuesday, 6.4.24 I recently came across information about a Mexican Supermodel that has been missing since August 8th, 2009. For some reason, her name and situation has resurfaced on the internet in June 2024, right when Mexico elects a woman president to clean up its corruption.  Since this Supermodel Gabriela Rico Jimenez likely knew some insights within her social circles about dark cult activities and secrets, she was likely either murdered to silence her or maybe even locked up somewhere, such as a mental institution, maybe for expermentation and electric shock to erase her memory.  Here is the link to my article: https://columinist.com/what-happened-to-gabriela-rico-jimenez/ Everything seems to fit together. But it appears she was erased from the internet because not much information is about her, except from other researchers who blog or make videos.
