Itās close to a year since I made any posts on this blog.
I was going along quite well with my WiP, and then some really bad news hit me at the beginning of May. That wiped me out for writing until the beginning of August, and just as I was starting to pick up the threads of my writing again, more4 bad news swamped me.
Itās taken until now for me to get my head together enough to really focus and seriously turn my attention back to my writing. Iāve come to the conclusion that the potential plot hole I was trying to darn together was just too implausible, so Iāve spent some time this month nutting out ways to come at the plot differently without completely changing the story, and Iāve done that. But in doing so, Iāve changed enough that I need to rewrite the work I hd done at the beginning of last year.
In a way, thatās good because I have to go back and start writing again, which gives me a run up to keep going when I get to the point where I broke off before. But on the other hand, thatās 16K words I have to scrape together again! Ah, well. Nothing written is ever wasted. Itās all training!
Iām also having a slight dilemma in that I may want to ārebrandā myself. My life has changed so drastically in the past nine months that Iām not the person I used to be. I think I want to put a new stamp on myself to help me feel like Iām focusing on my future and standing strong as I come out of 2021.
