Hi again!
Yes, I know, 2 journals from me within 60 days of each other and no memes involved. I'm surprised too. But, all things considered, I figure some overall goings on in the shadowy expanse between my ears were worth another post.
For the first time in a long time I feel absolutely INSPIRED. I'm not sure what it is, but for some reason my fingers keep finding their way to my keyboard in an increasing amount of my spare seconds. I've even been looking at dusting off old story ideas I'd shelved since my early days of college over a decade ago. Something tells me that I can actually make them work now. So, to give you an overview of my current project load:
1) 2 commissions I did for a friend of mine. This one is almost on the back burner just because I have to wait on them to make the edits they want before I post their tales here.
2) Pactio Infernum: Well, for the moment, I plan on keeping to a slow, steady pace. Looking at 1 chapter a month for now. I'm really hoping for some feedback, maybe see if anyone has any ideas I could use to improve the story. Sure, not a lot of readers thus far, but I figure it'll pick up eventually.
3) That contest entry I keep talking about: Thinking I made some significant progress. And even if our benefactor cancels the contest, I still intend to have something for it anyway. Expect a post by the end of the month.
4) The Adoptable's Story: Well, for one, as I said before, I took the time to give her a name. With any luck, the first part of her story should be up by the weekend. I'm looking at putting up 2 parts this month, and hoping I can keep up that pace. I think this one could go somewhere given a bit of time and effort.
5) That one project: Still working on my prep stories. When those are finished (2 to go), they'll be posted here. Hopefully I can start working on the plot of the larger work by month's end.
6) Dusting off the old: There have been 2 story ideas that have been kicking around in my head for close to a decade now, and with the state of mind I've been in lately as well as the episodic release stratagem a friend suggested by the above commissioner I believe I may be able to do something with them. Look for developments in April or May.
7) And ringing in the new: As if all of the above weren't enough,I still find myself craving more. More stories (short stories), maybe even commission slots if my well runs low. Wanting to have at least another 2 short stories done by month's end in addition to the above workload.
The madness seems to have returned. And damned if this bat isn't embracing it!

That is awesome! I have so many ideas I have started over the few years, but lack the drive to finish much aside from a commission here or there, and the occasional short story. I need to find a way to focus more....

Well, I find that regular application of music helps me. Has also improved my mood considerably. Hopefully it holds :)
