Yes. This is late after ailing in the big chair on
Monday and not feeling up to even crawling toward the computer for the weekly
Ready. Set. Write! post. However, now that I'm feeling better and only have the
cough and congestion plaguing me it's time that I have a quick
update.
I didn't get much of anything done last week after
facing a deathly…writers block. What I did get done, I’m not even sure of an
exact word count. So the week hasn't been that good to me.
Since I will be going on vacation on Friday! Then babysitting
today! And being sick for two days this week¡ (Up-side-down exclamation
point because that was not so great.) I am going to lower the bar, which sucks
but I think it’s necessary. In “revision” story I want to write a total of 2000
more words. In WIP I am hoping for 1000 words, but even that seems too hopeful.
A favorite line from my story or a word or phrase to sum up what I
wrote…
On this sad occasion of me writing almost nothing I am going to
turn my frown into a solid line by summing up my phrase in Latin: Sum
nihil. (A special thanks to Google translate!)
So being sick was a down point but that wasn't the main
reason the pages are left blank. It was writer’s block that somehow snuck
back in to watch me stare at the screen.
Despite this bleak update I will say that rewriting the “revising”
story feels a lot better because I love diving back into this story. There are
other upsides on bad weeks. 1. What goes up must come down, which means what
goes down must come back up right? 2. It could get worse, but chances are it
won't. ☺
