Well, I’m getting a little bit of the writing bug.  It’s mostly centered on my third pen name, but it usually spreads to other things once it awakens.

I’m sort of letting it build up at the moment, trying to let it get to the point where it’s nagging me.  Meanwhile, I’m still tinkering with other things.

Still have time off from work coming, so we’ll see what happens.  Maybe having a whole week off will give me what I need.  Only having a day or two just seems to be encouraging me to sleep and save it up for when I know I’m not going to get it :p

I’m still getting a little bit down on “paper” here and there.  There’s a little of the spark, but just not quite enough yet to really get me driving forward on anything at a remarkable pace.

Day off tomorrow.  I’ll see what happens when I have free time and quiet around the house for several hours.  If I can open up something then and get it moving, that might do the trick.  Whether that’s Lowborn, SOTM, the beginning of my next “of the wood” or something in my third pen name, I don’t know.  Just have to see what’s flowing.

I’m still fighting to find the inspiration to write.  I go through this quite often of late.  I end up just staring at blank pages if I fight it.

*sigh* All I can say is that it’s just as frustrating for me as it is for you.

It’s been a rather busy and frustrating week, so maybe things will get better after relaxing for a weekend.  I’ll probably open up something over the next couple of days to see what happens.  That’s usually the way it works.  I open the word processor, and all of the sudden the words flow.  I’ve got little control over it or ability to predict it.

Had an incredible high point with that story in my third name.  Most votes I’ve ever gotten on a single story.  Should have been inspiring, but didn’t even inspire me to finish a second story in that name — let alone anything with a plot or complex characters.

Probably holiday blues.

Anyway, I’ll try this weekend, and if that doesn’t work, I’ll try again next week.  At some point, I’ll get some words down.  Once I do, I usually have at least a short burst.  Hoping to finish some things and get them out as soon as that happens.
