Writing Blog
It seems as if the block to my writing has broken or at
least there is a large crack in it. I have been able to write more, some of it
even good, which is a nice thing. I have story ideas popping up, which is also
a nice sign. Maybe this means I can get some more work done and hopefully get
out Transitioning Home and finish the tweaks to Amulet of Adventure. That would
be nice.
In four days it will have been six months post-surgery. I
guess that does make sense that my writing is coming back. That was a big deal.
Anytime you have such a big surgery your world is going to change, whether you
want it to or not. My world has changed. I do see somethings differently, and
there have been some changes to my interests. Nothing totally huge, like I now
want to be a Mennonite Rock Star or something, but there has been a perceptual
shift that is interesting.
What does this mean for my writing? Well, I certainly will
be able to keep doing it, which was something I was worried about. For most of
my life writing has been a huge component of who I was and am. The loss of writing
would have been a serious blow to the psyche. Considering I use it as an outlet
for some of my thoughts and feelings, that could have turned me into a bomb of
sorts. But thankfully, things did not go that route. You have no idea how happy
that makes me. I love writing and storytelling and to have lost that would have
been to lose me.
So, the writing will continue and hopefully I will be able to
get more serious works out. Besides Transitioning Home I also want to get out
Splintered Life. It was the story that got me into more prose work and to see
it come out for a much wider audience would be lovely. Sure the money would be
a nice treat but in the end, I far more care about the fact that people get to
read and enjoy things.
With that in mind, enough woolgathering, time I got back to
work. Ciao,
