General
It would seem another month has passed, with depressingly few submissions. (Optimistically, I think I had 2, and I really don't want to know.) I need a quiet place of refuge to focus on writing and this definitely not it. It seems more often than not, my writing sessions get interrupted or even nixed from the get go for a variety of reasons.
The "good" news is that the month wasn't completely wasted. I did manage to bang out a few stories which I haven't posted. One, I'm trying to come up with (actually, more like 'draw') an icon as I have hopes for developing into series of shorts. The other main one, I don't know if I'll ever post here because Avid's world is not exactly a furry environment, and I'm not a believer in posting a lot of content that is "off topic".
Other than that, I have some other unfinished pieces. Things that I started (or almost finished) and realized the underlying premises or themes were "wrong", or that I had a lot of words on paper that didn't really say anything.
The "bad" news is that sub-section where I work is about to lose half our personnel (they're all quitting), including 2 who are close friends and make the place more tolerable, and there are no foreseeable replacements for them. So I'm expecting some more depressing moods and a lot more stress since I'll probably be picking up a good bit of the slack. (Sometimes I really wished I wasn't a responsible adult with a decent work ethic. Here, those things are more of a curse since the lack of them isn't punished by any noticeable means.)
I'm not exactly sure how that's going to affect the quantity/quality of my work, but it probably will change the mood/style. I anticipate a lot more "moody" writing (as exhibited in "Breaking the News"). So expect more depressing themes, or outright psychotic violence (aka Avid...which you probably will not see here).
Anyway, I think I've rambled long enough. To leave on a positive note: I SHOULD have a lot of free time late December and earlier January. HOPEFULLY, that means I'll be able to make good progress on....whatever.
