Well, so far so good. My list of things to do is still pretty long, but I have been able to knock a few things off of it. I finally got off my butt and transferred my writing files to the new laptop I'm using while I put on Kill Bill for background noise. This computer is not quite as nice as my last one (and doesn't have a name yet...), but maybe that's a good thing. Perhaps this way I will find less things to be distracted by.
I've transferred my files over, written on the external hard drive cases to differentiate which one was which (though I really do need to get another one...).
I've even begun working on a story that has been on my mind for a few days now.
Okay, so it isn't the one everyone wants...but again, it's a step in the right direction. Getting the creative juices flowing again as it were.
Still on my to do list is:
* writing down notes for various stories that have been popping into my mind
* reading a couple of chapters for one of my classes next semester so I enter the class prepared to jump straight into learning
* writing everyday -- even if it is just a few hundred words. They add up!
* finishing the proofing on a story so that it can be released
* Updating my website so that the information is current
* Proofing a story for submission to a publisher and doing the tedious but necessary querry letter, etc.
I think that is a long enough list for now... If I make it much longer, I may just end up feeling so bogged down and overwhelmed that I lock myself up on continuing with my progress.
Again...it may be slow progress...but slow progress is still better than NO progress.
