I feel very unaccomplished today, but I know that's just a state of mind. A lot got done.
And... once the marching band finishes, it's back to a novella for me. Tough to finish this one, though, because I first drafted it before world-grief really took hold. All the things I was pouring into it then feel very small right now.
I don't usually do full rewrites, but this might be an exception. It feels bizarrely "twee" for a post-coronal mass ejection murder mystery with ghosts.
You're still working on the creative part of your life even if you're not writing. It's building in you: the urgency, the ache, the words. You can feel it even now, and you'll know when the time is right.
But be kind to yourself whenever you *do* sit down again. The world-grief doesn't ease just because you've found a way to write some of it down. ๐
You are so wise.
@MLClark You can't land on the Moon every day. ๐
@MLClark Not me. I wasted the evening pontificating in social media.
So you accomplished more than me!
Still on for some time this weekend though, yes? ๐
@MLClark Abso-fraggin-lutely, as B5's Captain Sheridan used to say.
I'm looking forward to test-driving the WhatsApp Sharing feature.
Good. :) So I will just wish you the best of luck with the rest of YOUR writing work between now and then. ๐ค
@MLClark I'm still cranking.
