So things are maybe almost sort of getting back to normal. I am also working on a short story! For the Advanced short story workshop with Cat Rambo I’m taking. I am working hard on it and there aren’t too many scenes but the second one is taking forever! What am I doing?!?! I don’t know! I haven’t written a short in years!!! I’m using my “idea for an idea for a novel”. So it’s more of a “proof of concept” story where I can test drive the world and see if it has legs. Wow, that’s a lot of mixed metaphors!
Stress has definitely been getting to me and I am window shopping on the internet like crazy. I haven’t ordered anything but I’m not sure how long I can fight off the desire for having something to look forward to. What do normal people look forward to?
ANYWAY, after 2 weeks my father is out of the hospital. It’ll be a longish road to recovery but things are moving forward.
