It’s been a while since I made much progress on my novel and it’s so far PAST the original deadline, it’s not even funny. But I got a huge burst of inspiration and managed about 7k on it during the last week. I’m just thrilled that the story is starting to flow again. I\u00a0was really panicking for a while that I wouldn’t be able to get back into the story and finish it. I got sidetracked with health issues that kept me off the computer and a couple of other projects also got in the way.<\/p>\n
But it looks like I’m getting back on track here.<\/p>\n
