085. one day i'll be back for good

Hey.

Many randomlike thoughts to follow.

I've been on this kick of being MIA lately, haven't I? I'm in a writing rut, kids. I don't know where it comes from, I have many updates which will come in due time, but right now I'm sitting on my bed, watching my dogs literally chew on sticks, and drinking a glass of wine and watching Eat, Pray, Love which I have a feeling is going to make me cry.

As pretentious as it sounds this is making me really happy. I just wish I had more wit, more to say in general, because I'm limited. I have a lot of good times and a good life but I've lost the ability to put it into interesting words.

Almost Husband and I had a good talk last night while we were both half asleep. I mentioned needing something to fill my time other than Gilmore Girls because that's all I do now. Don't get me wrong, I enjoy it, but I'm like ugh I need to be productive?

So....I started looking for freelance writing gigs. I haven't written anything of substance in years, go figure, but why not try? So we'll see what's out there.

"The Novel", as we call it, has been in the works for 3+ years and I'm not closer to finishing it than I was when I started so again, there's that. But I wrote a chapter the other night, so good on me there.

I had a short story idea pop into my head the other night so I'm thinking of working on that.

I suck at writing fiction, SO BAD. I suck so bad. So I'm trying. I'm trying to work on anything descriptive that I can so I don't get frustrated and throw this out like the other seven books I've started that sucked.

Wow, this was more of a little rant than it was anything of substance, but at least it'll give me perspective for the next time I have writers cramp, eh.

That girl, Jordan.
