Creative Hiatus
18 years ago
Hello. I suppose I owe an explanation for my quietness.
I guess you could say I'm on a creative hiatus. A block if you will. I have ideas, inspirations, and things I want to do and create, but they will not make their way to paper. Even in my poems, the words just never seem to come out the right way, or it's not to my liking somewhere within the second stanza, and it ends up in the trash.
After a year of putting off Krivan's Tale, I've decided to take the story in a new direction. It may surprise a few that have been reading it, but I think it will lead the story into a new in-depth direction. It was too linear, when I started the original plans. As things have progressed in my life, so too will the complexities of the tale. However, the first thing I have to do is get rid of this block that's holding me back so I can begin putting those complexities into action. I can tell you that the next chapter will not go as many, including myself, have predicted...
I hope I can recover from this slump soon. Things have gotten slower at work, and so picking up the pencil or pen again would be a godsend right now. Just something to do to pass the time.

I found that drinking a god-awful amount of Hot Chocolate with mini-marshmallows helps a little, even if it is for a momentary burst of sugar-induced energy.
Love you lots hon.
