ANOTHER STAGE OF SATISFACTION
Another stage of satisfaction
In our life, there are a few stages that we had to go through in order to achieve the victory that we desire. On that way to success, there are so many obstacles. That is understood. In every achievement, there must be somebody behind all the thick and thin. And I am very grateful to have my hubby behind all my success. In sports, you win some and lose some, and that is acceptable. However, if you lose all the time, then something must be wrong some where. Also goes in our life. So in order to get everything right, passionate and hard work is importance. These two aspects should have in your mind if you want to grasp the success.
When I first sent my proposal to write the Adli in fantasy a couple of months ago, I never imagined that the publisher will print my book within a short period. After the other side agreed and asked me to start writing my book, I felt so pleased. I think in about one month, I finished writing my first series. Seven month later, on January 2007, the first Adli in fantasy series (white monkey mission) come out and distributed to the market. I was also involved in choosing my illustrator by looking at a few illustrations that email to me by the editor in-charged. They are a few photos inside the book and I am satisfied with the illustration. It is cute and live.
Once, the publisher had proposed to publish the book in a form of NOMIK (novel and comic). However, I disagreed. Then they came out with a few illustrations to attract reader especially young readers to grab and read the book. I then continue writing the second series. On July 2007, the series of Adli in fantasy…breakthrough time tunnel has released. Alhamduliallah, at the same time, I received a phone call from the editor in-charged informed me that the Adli in fantasy…first series need to be reprinted sooner possible. What a surprise!
Thank you to Allah for given his blessing till I am what I am at this stage. Thank you to my husband and children.
Life is so unpredictable. -
Writing Process
Writers should look at many aspects when planning to write. What are the aspects?
Audience and purpose are the two most important aspects.
Who you are writing for and what you are trying to do influence every aspect of the writing task. Without this information to focus the task, you may have trouble getting started on the writing, or have trouble making decisions about what to include and what to leave out.
When you are writing a personal letter the audience is usually one person, often a person you know very well. In such a situation, words come easily, because audience and purpose are well-defined and familiar. Many real-world writing situations involve audiences that the writer must partially or wholly imagine. The ability to imagine different audiences and serve their various needs is an important measure of a writer's fluency.
How would the language and style be different? I’ll continue next blog.
Start writing now because time is too precious. The moment you start writing, you will feel the excitement and a new you will come out without you realize.
Have a nice day ahead. The future is too far to catch. So keep it up. The brighter day will shine you for a new life. -
Unaccomplished Mission
March has left me a few days ago. Now, it’s April. I am still here, trying so hard to accomplish my mission.
A few month ago, I had promised the publisher to complete my second manuscript by end of March.
Unfortunately, I could not make it. Ah – I am trying to search my magic touch. I know it is here inside me, but until this precious moment, I still lost the touch. -
JOURNAL OF TODAY
Today is Thursday. If I have to count, I think I only left a few days before March end its month.
I tried to comfort myself. I know the dateline is just one step ahead, yet I haven't finished my last words for my next novel.
Adli di Alam Fantasi...menerobos terowong masa. I guess this is the best title at the moment. I cannot think of any title.
It is almost 6.00 p.m. I have to pack my things and bring back my office lap top to finish my work at home.

WRITING NOVEL
Writing is a good process where you can see a different kind of you inside the character that you built. Creating a character is not as easy as what readers out there thought. Some writers have to have specific character when writing book.
They have to create the characters first before further the writing process. I agree that every novel should have its own character that could attract readers to keep on reading till the end of the story. Sometimes writers need more than one main character to support the story.
If you plan to writer, just write simple sentence that could attract readers. Build a simple character for your start.
Remember, don't write long sentences cause it would bored readers. So start your talent now and you will feel the satisfaction when the ending of it finish.

MAGIC OLD CASTLE
That year was 1978. I was seven years old when my magic old castles built. Reminiscent of it still lies in my over large head. Sitting alone looking at the fallen of my magic old castle sadden my heart. It’s too old now. It should be abandoned. The wood that was used inside it had been eaten by the nature disease. The moment when I saw that castle fallen down, I knew that was the sadness ever have in my entire life. This is the place where my sibling and I were together through good and bad time. May the building of my family’s new castle could wash away all the bad moment and bring the brighter light into it.
As I looked into your eyes, I see all the reason why. My life worth a thousand skies, you’re the simplest love I want. My baby you’re the reason I can fly and cause of you I don’t have to wonder why. You’re my greatest love at all. My heart touched the moment I looked inside my father eyes. All the good and bad time with his wife (my late mother) was in that castle. The pain of building the castle still bear in his mind, I guess. Instead, that castle taught me lot. That was the place where I started my writing talent. At that moment, I did not realize that talent was inside me. I wrote and wrote till my teacher during my first year in form six at High School teased me. He said my poem was superb. At that time, I did not feel anything. A simple compliment from my teacher does not mean anything to me. That was 1989. I was too fragile to understand the words that coming from my teacher.
Now, year of 2007, I have written a few books that I never expected before. I never dreamt to be a writer. I wrote things through my interpretation and imagination. And what I knew most about myself is that I have a sharp mind. I could remember and describe every single thing that happened in my entire life clearly. The gifted that had been given by God, I should use it wisely. Now I realized that I should write more to educate society. Wish me luck. Hope the blessing from the Almighty could guide me along my way to success. -
RAIN
It's raining outside my office building. Looking at the rain made me feel calm. It is cool if I am not working today.
Unfortunately, I have to go another eight hours before the clock showed 5 p.m.
I hope these evenings can fresh me up to complete my novel.
Wish me luck.
