Hey Folks,
Well, probably another nonwriting day. I’ll get at least some editing done, but we’re still making adjustments due to the recent 1/3 increase in size to our family. (grin) Switching around some furniture and so on. Making everything as close to “normal” as we can for ourselves (Bryan, Mona, me) and for the kits and the pup.
Indeed, another nonwriting day. But today I had stirrings of a story within me. It (the fiction writing) will burst forth soon, maybe even before this edit is finished. The edit is a blessing in a way. In addition to providing a little more income, it also is enabling me to look forward to the next calendar year of writing fiction.
In the meantime, those of you who were dismayed at times by my numbers (which I display here to show what is possible, not as some sort of bar to be fretted over and surpassed) should be flying past me with your writing like I’m stapled to a tree. (grin) And I hope it is so.
