tried to write today but i got...nothing.
i think i may have to cry defeat in this battle so i can one day win the war.
i may need to put this current book aside and come back to it at a later date. i don't usually do that, it's too easy to lose the flow and never really be able to get back to it (a la coleridge and "kubla khan"). but so far, though i have 32 pages and it's all salvageable and at times enjoyable reading, it's just been such an unusually uphill battle.
and today it is making me ragingly cranky (okay, my moon-time may be helping too).
so, i'm going to live dangerously and maybe start something new, or work on one of the only other novels i haven't been consistent with even though i really like what i've done so far, and come back to this work-in-progress another day. i have a vague idea for a new fun fantasy book too. and i'd like to work on some poetry again.
first though, i'm going to sit on the couch in front of the fire with a hot water bottle and pop in one of the silly movies i rented.
