I have been so behind on blogging and writing. Partially because I don’t have the deadline of NaNoWriMo hanging over my head but also because there’s been a lot of personal upheaval in my life–from my mom’s kidney failure to my dad’s current hospital stay to my recent fractured leg due to another nasty fall.<\/p>\n
However, I’m determined to get this Flash<\/em> fic done and off to a betareader\u00a0before the end of the month. Why? The first session of Camp NaNoWriMo is coming up in April and I want to try it for a change.<\/p>\n I don’t usually find the April session very profitable for me. \u00a0In the past, I’ve had kids in school who needed ferrying around. This year, absolutely no one is in school and I’m laid up with this fracture for the next several weeks (the orthopedist may have something more to say about that tomorrow), so I should have lots of time to write, right? The problem is motivation–and having a project to work on. I could go back and finish some of my Thunderbirds<\/em> works-in-progress, though it’s hard to pick up the threads of a story that’s been dormant for years. I could finish off one of my original stories. Or I could strain the brain and come up with something new–maybe out-and-out superheroes. I guess I’ll see what piques my interest when the time comes.<\/p>\n Tomorrow, onto chapter 4 (and final).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have been so behind on blogging and writing.
