One Thing At A Time

You know what’s exciting? Me either, I was actually fishing for suggestions. Its been awhile since I lasted posted and trust me the initial withdraws were pretty vicious. I’m stuck in pretty much the same dilemma i’ve been in: lack of time. Either i’m at work in the hospital or busy trying to build my new business. I’ve said it time and time again: i’m destined to be my own boss.

So given the opportunity to be able to open up the manuscript I wrote earlier this year, I found myself not wanting too. Sadly, I barely recall the names of my characters that I loved so dearly for nearly a year. It’s difficult to edit something that has been displaced from your brain.  The only real way I can tackle this is to read it again and then edit. Damn, the thought was just exhausting, especially considering that I may not really get the time to read it all the way through. It’s like planning for a trip you’ll never go on.

Here I am again. Staring blankly at a computer screen, realizing I need to locate my long lost reading glasses, and hoping I can find the strength to open a file titled, “Life by Chance.” Heck, the cover has been the center of several art contests so the name is being put out there…at least in the world of art. Maybe I can muster up the strength to get this one out, though mustering up the finances is another issue. One problem at a time.

Signing off for now. I’m going to hit that file button and see where it leads me…right after a hot fudge sundae.
