Pen, Paper and Ink

     I am doing something I haven't done in a long while. . .writing and I am doing it in a manner I haven't done in a very, very long time. . .with a pen and a old fashioned composition book.  I am combining two 'ideas' into a Halloween story for this year.  I am doing this in leu of not having a computer or access to the files containing my drafts (The public library, I am sure, would take offense to what I write).

     I move into an apartment in early September and hope to devote more timeto writing, something I really love to do.

    Take care and play safe

Plugging Away

     Things here are moving at a slow and steady pace.  My part time job seems to be taking odd turns that I haven't been expecting.  These are not bad turns, just unexpected in a twightlight zone kinda way.

     My first writing project will be to edit a chapter or two of 'Summer Training' as well as 'Double Or Nothing'.  I also have a short story that has been rattling around in this skull that needs to be put down.  However, most of this will happen after I move into an apartment this September and get a computer to call my own.

      That is about it.  thank you for all your support and please play safe.

Thank You

     I want to thank everyone for their support during this 'transitional' period in my life. It means alot to me. Trying to look at the silver lining in this, I have the embryonic beginnings of a few short stories that have blossomed out of my hospitalization.  As soon as I have a computer to call my own, I will start writing again on 'Summer Training' and 'Double or Nothing' as well as a few half-completed projects.

     Take care everyone and play safe.

Things

     Everyone is probably wondering what is going on with me. I won't go into the gory details but my computer died, my house was foreclosed on, finding a job has been difficult at best and I have been in the midst of a very deep depression. All this culminated in an attempt to harm myself and the hospitalization afterward. Needless to say, I haven't worked on anything until the last few days, reviewing chapter outlines and such. However, even with access to library computers, it will be awhile before I post anymore updates (libraries frown on the work that I do and I am sure to loose access if I was discovered writing my stories there.) With no computer in the foreseeable future, my work will be on hold. . .at least physically. It doesn't stop me from figuring out new story lines as well as where longer ones are going.

Take care everyone and play safe.
