What to write next???
Sometimes, it’s hard figuring out what I want to work on next. The ideas are plentiful, so mostly it comes down to what’s calling to me the loudest (at least, when I’m not working on something already contracted 
.
I don’t like being in between things. It makes me feel at a loss. Things get a bit blue as my muse falls silent and allows my internal editor to start squawking his not-very-nice crap. He can make it hard to find the motivation to start on something new.
The nice thing is, as I play with the ideas and one begins to call out, my muse wakes up and tells that editor to shut up. Then, I begin work and life itself seems to pick up its pace.
The rollercoaster of an artist, I guess.
So, my Q4U:
Writers, how do you feel between projects? If it’s a down feeling, how do you overcome it?
So bad
Yes. I admit it. I’ve been bad.
I need a sexy, bare-chested guy in skin-tight leather pants to come spank me
The good news is, I’ve been keeping up with my 2 group blogs (see the right hand side). The bad thing is, between my schedule and the cold that is *STILL* lingering in my chest, I haven’t updated this poor little blog in a few weeks.
Shame on me.
Well. I have some good news.
Dragos 2 came out in January. Dragos 3 (for which I’m currently doing edits on) is scheduled for March 11th. Eek. That’s only a month away.
And Dragos 4 is slowly being written when I get a few moments of breathing & brain lucidity. Luckily, though the cold is still in my chest, I’ve actually been able to think a little the last few days.
YAY for me
Also, this week is Digicon, a free online workshop at www.SavvyAuthors.com Go check it out. Publishers, Editors, Authors are sharing their knowledge (and/or taking pitches) and it’s all free.
