I am astonished how much writing I can get done with a supportive staff. I’m beginning to understand the volume of output I might have if I didn’t work a day job. Scary and thrilling at the same time.

Good to see you, Dara.

I know I do this when I’m at work–horrible I know, but when you have a job you loathe, it’s fairly easy

I go through these cycles a great deal too.

Having some NaNo issues, there, Matthew? Hmmm….what kind of inanimate objects?

I’m finding the oddest things to procratinate with. I feel like talking to inanimate objects, whispering “Hey, c’mere…no, no, no, Nano won’t mind. Don’t worry.”

KJ I wondered where you had gotten off to! Now I see you’re on nanadiaries more than interminable writer, lol. BTW I couldn’t get the http://www.interminablewriter.com to load. I’m still getting your feeds on my reader from the WP blog, though.

Very good to see you again!

You are ina really good place. I was in that good place for about three years, then lots of life got in the way of things. Now that the life is beginning to settle down, I have to find that rhythm I once had and then stick to it. You’re inspiring.

These writing “highs” can last up to two weeks, but they always give way to the next part of my creative cycle. If only I could learn to hang onto them for always!

At the bottom of my “cycle,” I go away inside my head for around a week, writing only in my journal. I, too, fall asleep if I sit still too long, so have finally learned to compose on the keyboard or write at a desk. It does help.

Get some more rest! You sound worn out, Amber. (hug)

Good for you! I wish I could say the same, but at the moment, I’m in a writing slump. I just don’t have the energy to stay awake. If I sit down for more than five minutes, I fall asleep.
