I initially created this blog as MrsSnowQueen. Gosh, remember those days. My main purpose for the blog was to share my adventures in Indiana and keep in touch with my Florida friends. As those friendships slid away, I transitioned into the current blog with the idea that I would focus more on my writing and the quest to be a published author, yet continue to discuss everyday happenings and maintain contacts with friends.
The other day, I realized it was mid-May and I had not sent our writer's group May email. I felt bad for dropping the ball which is unlike me. Thinking back, I haven't worked on my personal writing since February and reviewing the blog, I determined the last writing post was March. Interestingly enough, when reading through my blog posts, I can see my writing style slipping since I haven't been writing on a weekly basis, which greatly disturbs me.
For more than a decade, I have prided myself on the fact that I like to try new things and maintain several interests rather than become stuck in a rut. It's a whole mental thing for me. I loved writing and used it as a vehicle to express some of the angst that resides in me because let's be honest, drama and chaos hunt me down though I try to avoid them.
To that end, I have a game plan. I did some of my best writing when I did my Starbucks mornings. This routine ended due to budgetary constraints, but I'm thinking it may be worth the cost because sitting in my living room, sipping coffee, while I "plan" to write doesn't work. Every time, I went to Starbucks, my purpose was to write rather than become distracted by my genealogy files, the t.v., or my latest research idea. So I shall return to my old haunt and begin my writing routine once again, though I won't have my former muse, my favorite barista.
And to my reviewers, yes, I plan to pull out the infamous manuscript and begin the revision process.Hopefully, I'll return to posting about my writing process while entertaining everyone with stories from my crazy life.
