Merry Christmas everyone!

I hope all of you had an awesome Christmas. Mine was ok. It ended up being mostly just another day for me.  This year has really turned out to be a bust for me when it comes to writing.  I’ve come up with MANY plots for stories, one just recently that I think will be two different kinds of novels in the end, and well I just really haven’t sat down to work on anything.  I think it’s my lack of belief in myself when it comes to writing.  I just worry I suck at it, and heck I probably do.  And I know I need to suck before I can be good, but when I write the suckage just doesn’t seem to be getting any less suckier.  So I guess that’s why this year I was disheartened.  I didn’t win Nanowrimo, and I’m not upset by it.  It just wasn’t in me.  And honestly, I don’t know if I will do Nanowrimo again.  I think I am beyond it now.  I don’t need an event to write.  I need good old fashioned butt in seat fingers on keyboard, or pen on paper as the case can be sometimes.

Next year I want to get back into writing again and writing more.  I am thinking about going to school for English/Literature, but I’m not sure if that will help me more or be a waste of money.  I have until the fall to figure it out.  But for now I’m just going to squirrel away my plot bunnies and ride out the rest of this year.

I hope this Christmas found you all happy and well and gave you plenty of down time to write.  I will talk to you all soon.  Take care until then.  Bye for now.  Smile

Longing to crawl into bed and call it a wrap on Christmas 2011,
