Writing With Rawiya

[desiresdd17]

An episode of writing with the muse for you.

I know, I know you think it's nuts to say you and an imaginary person are busy writing but I and a lot of my fellow writers consider our muses regular people. I enjoy all the time I spend with my muses but Rawiya, who is supposed to be a lot like myself, I enjoy the most.

Right now, we're writing Sugar Daddy together, pretty much free form. I haven't wrote an outline, only because the basis of the story was already done in the short that came out in a book last year. What we're filling in is the details about our characters. Our young man in culinary school who loves old American films and rhythm & blues while my attorney or barrister as he is called is a seasoned man looking for that special someone.

The seasoned one is the protagonist. He's been living the life of a sheltered man because of his career but now he'd like to be happy and settle down with one man. Only one problem. His wife and friend who entered into the agreement with him claims to be in love and doesn't want to grant him a divorce. What will he have to do to get it? Will his potential lover be okay with the fact he's still married?

So many questions! A very sensitive subject that we're tackling here, reading other books dealing with the same subject matter as ell as articles about gay married men trapped in marriages. The ideas are flowing and hopefully that will continue.

Did I mention how much I love Rawiya? Oh yeah the why. *grins* My sweet muse is already thinking of how we can get them into bed and throw that curveball to get them out of it. Matthew, the young man, knows hardly nothing about his new friend except likes, dislikes, and occupation.  Knows nothing about the wife and hasn't seen a picture. His friend is chiding him about this currently. How will he take it? We don't know. That's the fun of writing with the muse. Usually the characters follow our lead but we shall see what happens.

I do love to write!
