The name of this blog came from a couple of things. One of which was from a character outline I did last semester. The girl I created was a a freelance writer who was in Italy staying in a small house, down a side street. The other reason I named the blog Sidestreet Dreams was because I'm slowly learning that the original path to the things we want to achieve branches off and before you know it you're walking totally lost down a different artery. Maybe it's scary and off course but I'm beginning to learn that you have to embrace it and let these roads take you wherever they think you ought to go.
Last summer I went on a road trip and the GPS messed up on more than one occasion. One time in particular, we ended up on a back road in the middle of nowhere. It was frightening being so isolated and far away from civilization. Though I don't mean to throw you off when I say there were other people there but only whizzing by in their cars going who knows where. The point is that you get a story; a moment out of this. You may not necessarily like it but that's what often happens in life.
