Time has been flying by a mile a minute here so I thought I’d make a quick update before the month is completely gone. It’s been a wild time. Between my academic work, fiction writing, DMing, and life I have been running a little ragged this month.
There are many talents of modern creativity that are difficult for me even decades into the craft. One of my glaring personal hardships is having trouble finishing projects. In writing this usually means I have about twenty-to-one “chapter 1s” versus “the ends”. I’ll hit a spot where I don’t know my next move or have trouble continuing and figure some space will help me focus… Sometimes for several years. This week I’ve been on a roll though.
I made my first trip to Sooner Con his summer. Riding high off of actually writing again, I spent a lot of my time in panels listening to professional writers’ advice. It was a great time to reinvigorate myself to finish a few of my projects. Also, I am going to be editing the next few issues of Tavern Tall Tales, so I’ll have an opportunity to put some of what I learned to work.
It’s been a while but maybe this time it’ll stick. I’ve been writing about three pages a day for the last month. Slowly it has been paying off. Hopefully, I’ll keep this momentum and maybe finally get a few projects out the doors.
Got any favorite places to submit short fiction?
I planned on writing a brief summary of the year and laying out a plan for this year, but things kind of fell apart on me for a minute. Everything is as fine as it’ll be now but last year chewed me up and spat me out. It’s not my intention to hide my life struggles. This blog is supposed to be my inner thoughts and journal but life just kept happening. So, I’ll try to sum things up as best I can.
