You may have noticed (ahem) that I haven't been writing. This is due to many things, all of which can be summed up as Real Life Has Eaten ratherastory's Brain ( Read more... )

ras has interests outside fandom!, writing is hard!, ratherastory explains it all

Heh. Seems that one remains a universal favourite among my readers. I have ideas simmering at the back of my mind...

Heya! It's nice to know you're still around, though. :) 2-3 hour commute? Dude. That is just insane.

Hope things level our for you soon. Be well!

The commute is killer, and learning a new job while juggling everything else is a heck of a challenge, but I'm hoping things will level out soon as well.

*hugs*

I'm mostly hanging out on Twitter these days. It seems a more manageable format for me. ;)

Bless you, Lady! I hope you find a way to get your writing time back, because those all sound wonderful! Happiness and Joy to you!

Thank you! I hope I can manage it too. The time is less an issue than the energy levels and the ability to focus. With those two, I think I'd be able to find or make the time.

So many things on that list sound all kinds of wonderful! :D (FERRET!VERSE!!!) I know things have been crazy for you, but if you ever need a writing partner to try and get the writing juices flowing again, you know where to find me. ♥

I may well take you up on that come January. I'm going to take December to brush up on my outlining and structuring skills, to make sure I'm properly set up to start writing with a purpose again.

I don't have any prompts, because time to read? What? Practically all I read anymore are submissions. All the original stories sound great, though. ;)

Anyway, I've been having trouble with discipline and focus on writing too (apparently, it all revolved around me being miserable). Maybe we can help each other sometime. Or, more likely, distract each other, but it'll still be fun.

Yeah, discipline and focus on writing are so, so hard when you don't have a set routine (like me because of my schedule), or when your routine is entirely self-imposed and therefore subject to being derailed.

I'd love to bounce ideas and stuff with you. I'll be working this weekend but will have access on and off to gchat, so maybe we can discuss stuff more at length then!

Absolutely! I'll be around. Ping me whenever.
