Hello world! I’ve been having a hard time writing lately, but I’m happy to say my funk is over, and I’m producing fictional words again! I’ve gone back to a project I was working on last year, and I’ve rediscovered the thread, which is not something I’m usually able to do when I’m away from a project for a long time. Yay new skills!
So what happened? How did I get my mojo back? I don’t really know for sure, but something shifted in me and I have motivation again. It happened while I was thinking about the future, and how life ends quicker than you think. I wan’t to leave some mark on the world, and if I don’t do it through writing, I don’t know how else I can. Even if I end up like an ancient person painting a cave wall, with my work unseen until long after I’m dead… well, at least I will have left something behind!
With that in mind I’m planning to release a collection of short stories this year. There are ten to fifteen stories I’ve written over the past few years that I feel are good enough to be read, so you’ll get to read them! I think putting them out as a collection makes more sense than one by one as blog posts, which I started doing. I’ll just put them on Smashwords, then start on writing more!
Anyway, that’s what I’ve been doing. Feels good to be writing again.
We all face similar hurdles from time to time. Very glad to hear you through this one a ready to share your work with the world.
Thanks for the encouragement T.R 🙂
