I Feel Like I'm Back In School!?

Outlines, outlines, outlines. I feel like I'm back at school having to outline everything before sitting down and writing an essay. Now don't get me wrong, I understand the importance of a good outline more than I did back in my essay writing days. Who had time for outlines back in university? Anyone? Not me, but given the fact that I am writing a fucking book I get the importance. These last two weeks have been used to focus on outlining everything about my book. Outline the details about who my book is for, why I am writing a book, the outcomes I want to see with my book and of course, outline every chapter and what stores will be told in each. Somehow I'm exhausted from it. I found it more annoying than anything ese. I JUST WANT TO GET WRITING! Never thought that writing would be something I was craving to do.

Now, granted, in my last post I did state that I was writing a chapter which I did and it is finished... for now. (of course I expect it all to potentially change) I need to focus on the bigger picture. I want this book to written and written as well as I am capable of doing.

Bruh, I even got cool rocks to enact some type of placebo effect to help me be more focused, creative and confident in myself during the process. For anyone interested in crystals or knows any kind of crystal stuff I now have the following item to "help".

Tigers Eye - For confidence and strength. "Stone of courage". It is supposed to help with grounding yourself and finding motivation again.

Lepidolite - "Can be used for easing stress and anxiety. Stone is about bringing balance and stability. (Google)

I'm all for some kind of placebo effect that may help with my ability to focus, grow confidence and lessen my stress levels during writing and in life. Life has been stressful lately due to person reasons that I won't explain right now, but possible later once the sense of calm has returned.

So, back to book things.

The outline is officially done and handed in. Part of me feels like it's a half assed, throw some words in but it's the best I got. I'm so eager to actually get writing but can already see road blocks up ahead with possible complications. Where I have the most hesitation is how to write my memories and my husbands memories after transplant. What I mean is how can I differentiate in a written way my memories and his stories in a way that separates them and makes sense? Definitely will be a questions I bring up with my book group BUT if anyone is reading this and has any opinions. Let me know!
