Writers are the Best People

I'm ashamed of myself. I wrote the last post and didn't get back to it until now. I've read the comments and realized what a wonderful world we live in when people can give such sincere care to someone they don't know. I've been uplifted by your comments and nearly in tears. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. I think the best people in the world are writers. What an inspiration you have been to me.

The good news is, I'm writing again and loving it. I'm 52% done with my novel and it's falling into place nicely. I look outside and see the brilliant yellow leaves and think, by the time they grow green again, I hope to have it done.

Thank you all so much.

Stop Obsessing

I've been so caught up in what's going on in the world, I haven't had time to blog. With the state of the country, the Congress running amok on health care, our economy being flushed, and our troops being all but ignored, I haven't been able to concentrate on my writing. Every time I plan to sit down and work on my novel, I can't resist the impulse to go out and see what's going on in the world. I'm obsessed. It happens to me every now and again. No, that's not true, it's a state of mind for me.

But, I swear, tomorrow I'll work on my book for, at least, two hours first thing. The world can just fall apart, I'll be working on my writing. Really.
