Fluff.

I keep having this dream that my boyfriend comments on my blog saying that all of my posts are "fluff" and that I need to write something more meaningful.

Is it true? Do I need to have a "meaningful" blog? As long as my blog fulfills my need, isn't that enough? Since I am having this dream, there must be something missing that my subconscious is trying to tell me. Well, I want this blog to be an outlet for my fiction, my "lessons" and just a place where I can write. Haven't I done that?

I wish I could dream up a story and write a great, American novel. Probably won't happen anytime soon unless I start writing "meaningful" blog posts so I stop having this "fluff" dream. Maybe I should go on a LONG vacation and keep a diary - or has that already been done? It's just an idea though, I guess.

Maybe I could drive around the country visiting other colleges and sneak into classes and write about it. I wish someone would just pay me to sit down and brainstorm and write unfinished stories. That would be the life, kind of. It would also be nice to be published in one way or another.

I know what I need! A mentor, someone who will coach me through writing a novel. Someone who will keep pushing me when I don't think I can keep writing. Someone who will help me to come up with ideas to keep the story rolling.

One can dream I suppose. If you know of any novel writing coaches, let me know.
