I didn’t want to stay away for long and slunk around the Friday Fictioneers prompts for several weeks now. Nothing came to mind, I feel a bit empty, without new ideas. I still have too much work. But suddenly I have this urge to do the NaNoWriMo… Crazy, right?

I want to get back into the writing mood, and maybe pushing myself a bit will help. I’ve had this story on the backburner for a while now, have a lot of notes and a rough outline… and would like to just write. Be more of a pantser than a plotter for a change. Write away and use a lot of place holders like TK and XN when I haven’t thought about things thoroughly yet. I don’t really care if I make the 50K words as long as I find myself stringing words together again. So… am I crazy?

Eventually, I’ll get ideas for the prompts again, I miss the FF community. And I’ll have to catch up on Sammi’s LOTR reading, I’m so far behind.

Have a rose. 🙂

Hello friends and fellow Fictioneers, I’m on a short break. Work overwhelms me, so does the heat and everything. I have no intention to stay away for long though, maybe another week or two.

I’ve rediscovered reading a lot. I was rereading books from childhood a while ago (fun and also horrible) and now am re-reading old favourites and it’s great. I did remember what it felt like to read, and read, and read some more but was too distracted by too many things for far too long. Now I got back in the reading mode, I hardly visit social media, seldom watch a movie, no TV, but read.

And I’m cooking/preserving a load of tomatoes, peppers and eggplants we ‘rescued’ from a farmer’s rubbish heap. Today I’ll make Ajvar.

See you soon. 🙂
