It's been a while...

So, how are you all? Do you remember me? It's been a matter of weeks since I've posted!

The first reason for my lack of posts is that I really don't have that much time! (I think just about everyone has that problem). Juggling my jobs, chores, schoolwork, writing, and blogging has been kind of tough. That is because I can't juggle three balls, let alone five. It's just to be expected that I drop a ball. Thankfully, unlike real juggling I had a choice as to which ball I should drop. Blogging hit the floor with a resounding thump.

The second is that I haven't been able to think up anything to post about. Now that I'm on Traveling Tales, I'm not posting writing tips on this blog anymore, and I'm kind of at a loss for what exactly my blog should be about. My life is so boring that I'm sure that no one wants to hear endless posts about it, but sometimes it feels really good to just sit and type about my life.

(Peter just walked by the computer room, completely drenched, holding a soccer ball. Our eyes met and an instant telepathic bond was formed. The translation of the message that was transmitted: my brother is crazy.)

I'm actually happy. =) I'm starting to rewrite my first NaNoWriMo book. It's tough, because I'm so used to first draft jot-down-whatever-trash-pops-into-your-head-first type of writing. But now, on a second draft, I'm actually spending some time editing stuff I've just written. And I'm actually satisfied with my writing style. I can see that it's grown so much from two years ago. I know that it'll keep growing and that two years from now I'll look on it and pronounce it garbage, but I know I'm progressing.

The story line is changing a bit. Before it was super cliche (partly because I had just watched Lord of the Rings and was completely obsessed over it). Honestly...I even had something very, very close to Ringwraiths in my book. Now it's starting to look really original. Like it's my very own. *happy sigh* I love you, book.

I hope this post was worth your time clicking over. =) I'll try to write something even more substantial later this week, but now I have targets just waiting for me to nail with arrows! *happy sigh* I love you too, archery.

Hugs & Blessings,
