Nope, not on the manuscript. No moving ahead there. But time sure has a way of surging ahead.
To update on NaNoWriMo, it was more NO than MO. With my recuperation, two sick kids to tend at different times, snow days and other distractions, I didn’t really find much “alone time” with my ms. I found myself looking longingly at my shed in the corner of the yard, the path to it buried under heaps of snow. I was tempted a couple of times to brave the elements and hide out there, but even with the space heater, I knew it wouldn’t get warm enough in there to be comfortable to write. Sigh.
I have accepted these peaks and valleys in my writing. It doesn’t mean I’m giving up. It just means that I’m not going to sit and whine about how nothing is getting done, because in due time something will be written, as long as I don’t give up completely. So I am back in the saddle (for now) and hopefully I can keep the words flowing for a little longer each time.
I’ll try not to let months pass before I post another update. (Yeah, right!)
