selling dreams

when i'm in the zone, it's my dreams i'm trying to sell to you. it becomes more than just a job. it becomes an outlet. i discover these dreams that i never knew i had.

when i'm in the zone,  i look forward to continuing their story. i look forward to living it, alongside these two people whom i feel i know very well.  at best, it's like living another life, being another person, carving out a dream world.

writing, especially under the pressure of a deadline, can be hell.
but there are rare moments. pag nakaimmerse ka sa sinusulat mo. in that world, undistracted, when it feels good. almost great. you know these people. you know their problems. you know the world they're in. you actually CARE.

i haven't cared for a project like this in a long time. i haven't known characters this way for years. may parte sa loob ko na nabuhay, and i don't even know how that happened.

maybe it was self-motivated. i had to find something (someone) to inspire me. to make me care.

their love story can go on and on and on kung ako lang ang masusunod. but it's time to go home. :-(
