Roadblock

I have been bound and determined to complete my manuscript in time for the Writers Conference this summer. It took me the whole month of January to rewrite and tweak Chapter 3 until I felt it finally worked. The characters have more dimension to them and I introduced two new conflicts that would help flesh out the story and the character's mindsets.

I was on my way until February rolled around. With all the personal health crisis I have been struggling through, I have not been able to get into the mindset to touch my writing. For those who don't know, the procedure I underwent at the beginning of the month is not a success and has made me feel worse than I was before. I have been agonizing again over my options, which are severely limited. So, I have not found been able to find solace in my creative outlet, writing. I have an inkling I'm not going to meet my goal this year of finishing my manuscript and meeting with an agent.

On a brighter note, I've discovered how fortunate I am in my friends.
