Let's see . . . interesting projects . . . some of my stuff from the deep distant dead files just was reissued. Old comics from 1984 & 1996 in an anthology by S. S. Crompton. I started a new blog for my paranormal novel Utopea. I've had a few genealogical articles published in arcane newsletters, and am still working on my Civil War non-fiction study "Social Network of the 166th Virginia Militia." Work on the third City of the Gods novel goes slowly.
I keep up with all your releases on social media - you are so productive! I have too many hobbies outside of writing.
All of my non-writing hobbies have died. I now and then try to resurrect them by buying paint and such, or maybe drunkenly pulling out my guitar.
My last release charted really well, more than I would have thought. I have screen grabs of it on the page with Anne Rice and Stephen King. Really blew my mind in terms of "what's possible."
This is a project that began *years* ago as a NaNoWriMo, morphed into a screenplay, and is now being adapted into a novel (yes, I'm doing that backwards, lol)
I could never give up my other activities just to write. I enjoy all my work in community organizations, arts and crafts, and travels too much. But, as you know, those are all career killers. Fortunately I do not have to support myself due to my amazing husband.
I hope you're having a wonderful day! My life hasn't changed much - still living in the same place in much the same circumstances, going to Dragon Con, being a "cat mom" etc. My husband is working in Germany this week so I'm a little lonely. I'm tempted to go out and spend too much money when I get bored, so I thought stirring up old friends on LJ would keep me out of trouble. :-)
Same here - every once in a while I remember LJ exists and go check it out. I see all your posts elsewhere, I think. I mainly post fannish stuff on my wynnmercere Tumblr these days.
I'm still here and think about you and that I'd love to write on our Tribe story, but unfortunately I'm still on the tablets that seem to have taken away all my writing thoughts!
I am well, thank you, and I wish you the best with your health as well. Is the leak in your home fixed yet? That would drive me crazy! I've enjoyed reading your recent posts about your church. I know how there can be a lot of "drama" when a new pastor takes over.
you'll know about the stopping the tablets next month! going to be difficult i think but if this consultant can get me sorted and off the tablets my brain might be more active again. I may even eventually get back to the signing course!
No the leak isn't fixed and it's driving me crazy. I'm at the stage now where I am going to write to my MP - my local MP is Nick Clegg (he might be a bit busy at the moment!) but as my mom is here next week and then I don't know how I'll be feeling after that so I might not be able to give it the attention I need if people call to look or mend it or if I need to write any letters or anything so I'm going to wait until I've got my appointment out of the way first.
It all seemed a bit disorganised at church this morning! we also had some very young players in the worship team today who were very out of tune or/and uncoordinated with their rhythms! lol! but good on them for giving it a go!
Our church talk gave me a funny nightmare last night; I dreamt that I was trying to communicate with a preacher who would just not shut up and help me with my question, lol. Once he got started, he was jabbering like a robot!
I count myself very fortunate that I am in great health and need no medications or treatments. I'm expecting that my health insurance will be yanked out from under me or the expense tripled next month, thanks to our idiots in the White House and Congress.
Well, a lot has changed with me since I last saw you. I've not been to DragonCon in three years now :( and probably won't get to ever again as I'm moving out of state as soon as I can. My marriage is crap- I married someone that changed completely after we married...way too much to go into. I graduated with my Associate's in Medical Billing & Coding December 2012, and have been working on passing my certification test this year. Take it my second time on Saturday the 28th- I WILL pass it this time! As you know I lost my baby girl Muffin on June 5th...I am still raw from it, but have done what you told me and have tried to be strong and not cry everyday and not cry when I am telling her goodnight. I've been doing good about it, but did cry last night (had an emotional day).I want to be a cat mom again so bad & there is actually a cat that to me is supposed to be mine- Let me explain: When Joseph & I adopted Muffin in 1998 her name was Blossom. Last week I saw a cat up for adoption that is a calico & her markings are VERY similar to
( ... )
Sounds like you are on the right track and have your life priorities in order. Nail that next test and escape to Washington! I know it's hard that you can't adopt Blossom right now, but she may just be a sign that you're moving in the right direction for happiness. Hang in there!

I'd love the link for your Utopea blog!!
