The past few months have been hectic, hence my absence from the bloggers’ sphere. I’ve only just managed to catch up on all the wonderful posts from blogs I follow and can tell you it was a mammoth task! I’ve still to get back to finishing my next short story, though I am grateful to have a majority of it written. Just a few more scenes to write then the task of editing.
What I find rather frightening is how quickly this year has gone. I remember thinking back in January about the plans I had for the year and though I have achieved quite a few of my goals, there a many that may not even get off the runway. I am way behind querying agents; managed to get a few letters submitted yet feel the year is slipping away. A bit like the sand in the hour-glass (I remember the old soapy ‘Days of our Lives’ from when mum occasionally watched it. I can still hear the voice over!)
Still, chasing my tail is not a bad thing, it is a good reminder of what I need to do and somehow find the time to do them. And if I don’t then there’s always tomorrow.
I agree with you. The year has gone by so quickly that is almost mind boggling. I do like your attitude “there is always tomorrow”. Is the only way to keep ones peace of mind.
Wish you all the best in your short story!

Oh my goodness, do I know the feeling! But you’re almost at the editing stage with the short story, that’s awesome – and a huge accomplishment when things are organized chaos due to needing more hours in the day!

Some days I wish I had more hours, but I’d still be chasing! Thanks for contributing 🙂
