My idea has morphed into a toad and a spider. The story (which is now in a complete first draft) is so unlike anything I've ever written. It's very free-wheeling, cartoony, offbeat. No thoughtful metaphors, no lush language--just fun and fast-moving dialogue. There is a lesson/theme/story, mind you. And it's not stream-of-consciousness. Can't wait to see where this takes me. I just wish I could draw because these two (the characters) are so clear in my mind.
The other story (the one about Grandpa) is coming along, too. Entirely different from Toad and Spider and very dissimilar to anything else I've done. Guess I'm finding my voice . . . whatever that means.
