Prologue?

After rethinking this idea again. I think it may be more enjoyably to read a book when it has a prologue. I personally really like it when a book has good prologue. A prologue that makes you curious about the story line, but still doesn't spoil much of it. It's also better for me if I write a prologue first, because this means I really think about the story line and make a brief summary for myself. A prologue is also very useful as a goal, it's something I have to write to. The problem now is that I don't really know the story line by hard or written down somewhere. But when I've already written a prologue, I can re-read it over and over again, which makes me remember the full story line (at least that's what I'm hoping for). And it would be also useful if I would set a deadline for myself, so that I don't have to write just a few hours before the real deadline, which was given by my teacher English (what I'm actually doing right now as a matter of fact). So the deadline for my prologue will be on October the 24th, next week's Friday.

The reason and some actual content

After a few weeks I finally know what I'm going to write on this blog. First I thought of this being something useless and I did not know what I would be writing about. I thought that I would write about the blog itself and philosophize about it being useless and I would not bring any message at all to anyone. But it won't be that way. I finally know where I'm going to write about, I'm going to use this blog to write my own book. The reason for this is actually to blame to my teacher English. First of all because this is an assignment as well. And secondly because I had to write a short story about something, it didn't matter what it was about. While writing that, I remembered that I started with writing my own book a year or so ago. It was Sunday and I was bored, which occasionally happens, so I thought to myself; Why not? I wrote about one page and stopped to get something to drink. I was just about to walk upstairs when the doorbell rang. I opened the door and saw my friend asking me if I had something to do. I let him in and we hang out in my house and my garden. I completely forgot about my 'book' and when I got back to my laptop I totally forgot the story line and gave up. This seems to be perfect opportunity to restart and actually write something, because I kinda like writing stories. And most importantly I don't have to bring out a full book, but I can write a chapter, post it on blogspot, get back my inspiration, write and post the next chapter and I eventually will have a book and (hopefully) a good grade for my English.
