Not many posts lately, I note! What the hell? I’m supposed to be a writer, for crying out loud, what gives?
Life. Stuff. Crap. “How do you make God laugh? Tell him your plans.” That kind of stuff. I’ve stared at the new book every week, I’ve gazed at my list of target agents for the first book, and then stuff like my wife’s green card (which she finally has!), or our living situation (which desperately needs to change), or work gets a little batty, or various and sundry government agencies start commanding personal documentation from twelve years ago (which is as likely to surface from my horrid files as a giant squid is from Lake Hopatcong), and the energy must flow in a direction that’s not creative, that’s not where I want it to go, but it’s where it has to go.
I wish I were better at multitasking, but it’s tough for me to give the proper amount of focus to one thing when the others are cooking my brain into an omelet. It’s been a rough year for large-scale disturbances. I think I may need to re-think how I write, because ultimately I know that a lot of folks write and deal with this kind of stuff. Vacation would be good to re-center myself, but I’m screwed there until I can suss some of the work stuff — so for now it’s a holding pattern while I deal with everything except the writing.
TLDR version: Bah.

Well, we DID get your green card, and we ARE looking at houses, so it’s entirely possible that IN RETROSPECT this may, in fact, have been an awesome year.
It’s just, erm, not right at the moment. >.>
