I have been a writer for 8 years. In those eight years, most of my stories
were random. There was no reason behind my writing them.
The Writer's Christmas Vacation was different. I wanted to write something that was nothing like what I had written in the past.
That was when Melissa was dreamt up. A writer much like myself but who had tons of mental health problems. Most of which she had hidden from her agent and editor.
One idea after another was thought up:
A prison
A murder
An asylum...
The thoughts were endless and resulted in the manuscript being full of twists and turns.
But one problem remained - self doubt. Would anyone read it? If they did, would they like it?
The problem was soon answered: yes, people would read it and almost everyone who read it enjoyed the story.
Now that I sit here in front of the keyboard, I have come up with a poem about the long process behind this manuscript:
Not a story
I thought I'd write
Melissa was a character
That just appeared on the page
I didn't expect her
And once she arrived
I refused to neglect her
Her agent was lovely
As was her editor
But what would happen
When her mother died
And her father disappeared
