Why yes, I am alive.
I know, it’s been 7 months since I last posted in this blog, and I really have little excuse except for one. Getting home so late, after working a grueling day, with what I do being mentally draining, I don’t have any energy left to write coherently. Besides, I don’t really have anything interesting to say, unless my readers want to hear the dull details of life in a print shop.
That, however, is changing, come Monday. New job, different hours, more time and energy to think. And, of course, there’s only 30 days left until NaNoWriMo, which usually inspires angsty, stressed-out writing from me around the second week. Hopefully, I will have more inspiring posts until then.
At least for this NaNo challenge, I have a story idea that seems to be a little more energetic than in past years. My first October pre-writing exercise resulted in an aha! moment for a plot. It’s a bit different than what I’m used to, in that it’s a fantasy setting, but there are enough paranormal events that it makes the horror side of my soul giggle in maniacal glee. So, we’ll see what happens.
If you’re ready to stick with me, thanks. I hope to not disappoint.

I love when parts of you giggle in maniacal glee. Such a great sound.

Who are you and why are you following me around? Oh … never mind about that, So sis, whatcha writing. Sounds like a book. I’m really going to have to catch up on stuff you’ve written so I can see how my baby sister is doing. I don’t suppose you’ve read any of my online articles and I know you haven’t read my blog … come to think of it nobody has
Anyway, point me to some of your stuff so I can read it. I have an article coming up but I’m sure you don’t want me to tell you about it here. Anyway, keep writing and I’ll see you on the net.

I didn’t know you had a blog. Every time I searched for one, it came up with one of your old ones. I have you now, though, so I can keep up to date.
Yes, book. Many, actually. 18 novels, to be exact. I do have some pieces online, but I’ll link to them privately for you.
