Starting 2013 with a Sneeze



Well, today we’re one week into 2013. I figure this is a good time to do a quick check-in.

I’ve officially been sick more than half of the year so far. Not fun.

On the plus side, I’ve written every day so far. My total word count so far is just over 8000 words.
I also have been interviewed by fellow writer and friend Stephanie Wytovich. You can get a peek into my madness here.

I’m hoping to have a couple of short stories published by the end of January. Still not sure what to do with the sort-of finished novels hanging over my head. I’ve been trying to start a new one, but these guys keep gnawing at me. I think I need a writer’s retreat so I can spend some in-depth time working them over. When I’ve figured out what to do with them, I’ll let you all know.

In the meantime, I need more tissues. Stay healthy. Being creative is much easier when you aren’t blowing your nose every two minutes.
