My name is Gerald Logue, and I as of this writing, I am 45 years old, and currently live in Stockton, California. Here is a sample of my writing, the first chapter of my first novel,
Life, According:
DECEMBER 18, 1981
Idon't know why I'm writing this journal in the first place, except for the fact that Miss Donnelly says that it would be a good idea for me to keep one. I don't know what it is about her, but I trust her more than I trust pretty much most grownups I know. There isn't a lot I can't tell her. I can tell her things I can't even tell my parents.
When Miss Donnelly told me this morning that I should start a journal, I only had one problem: what can I write about for my first entry? It's funny how things happen sometimes. . .
Fortunately, about an hour after my session with Miss Donnelly, something did happen that I could use as my first entry. . .
During arithmetic, while we were having a quiz, the point on my pencil broke, and I had to go to the sharpener to sharpen it. (It would be important to this story for me to mention that because today was the last day of school before Christmas vacation, Mrs. Landers hung a sprig of mistletoe above the pencil sharpener) When I got to the pencil sharpener, Melissa Rainey was sharpening her pencil, and when she was done, and she turned around, she saw that I was standing directly below the mistletoe. Needless to say, when she saw me under the mistletoe, she gave me a kiss. I do have to admit that at the time, it was kind of embarrassing, but now that I've had some time to think about it, I realized something. . . I actually enjoyed it when she kissed me. I wonder if she enjoyed it as much as I did.
Well, it seems that I have to get back to my journal later. . . Scott (my stepbrother, you'll be reading a lot about him in future entries) and I are going roller skating, while my dad and stepmother are wrapping Christmas presents. I hope I get a guitar.
I had fun skating tonight. Melissa Rainey was there. I asked her to skate with me during couples skate. They played an older song. . . "Day After Day" by Badfinger. I know the song came out about 10 years ago, but after tonight, it became one of my favorite songs. After couples skate, we went to the snack bar for a soda, and Melissa told me that when she kissed me, she felt something, like a spark. She kissed me again, and when she did, I felt like I was floating on air, like Charlie Brown in that Peanuts special where he gets to escort the little red haired girl to the homecoming dance, when she kissed him. Afterwards, when my dad picked us up, Scott was teasing me about having a girlfriend. The funny thing was, I didn't want to pound him like I normally want to do when he teases me about stuff. I think I'm in love. . .
1. I first started writing seriously in 2009, when I started what would eventually become my first novel, although I started writing my first fanfic in 1999.
2. I started writing because I've always enjoyed reading. Also, I needed an outlet for my creativity, and my drawing skills are somewhere between "crappy" and "non-existent".
3. When I first started on my novel, I would say my biggest inspiration was Judy Blume, especially her "Fudge" series, as well as the works of Beverly Cleary.
4. I like different types of writing, although the series of novels I'm currently working on are taking the form of a personal journal.
5. No.
6. Not yet, but I'm leaving that option open...
7. Self-published.
8. I would love to write a spy novel one day.
9. Not at the moment, but you never know...
10. The only advice I can give is that great novel you have inside you ain't gonna write itself, so start writing...
