Nothing is more frustrating than paying mint for DSL and then having to wait for a page to load so that you can update a blog.
That said, I have resumed work on
.. Curves of Ampersand at long last. I haven't done a damned thing with it since June. No, I wasn't experiencing writer's block. Laziness, maybe, but not writer's block. I have never experienced writer's block. I don't think it exists. Sometimes I may not like what I have written, but, like diarrhea, the words flow anyway, even if it is sh*t.
It is good to be working again. Moreover, it is good to be working on something SF again.
Sweet Lil'one, while a great experiment and a good experience, left me wanting. I learned a great deal about a great many things, including the level of my resolve, but the level of creativity that I require to satisfy me wasn't there. I created wonderful characters and situations, but I was restrained by the mundane. I could not reach beyond the normal realm of human experience, vast as those experiences can be, but now that I am working in the SF again, there are no bounds. No more shackles for now. For now, we write.
