Writing: Back at it

It's been a while since I've blogged about my writing project. Late last summer. And that's because my project has remained mostly untouched since I began preparations for my holiday concert in November. Lots of reasons for not writing. More than lots of excuses. Perhaps, more likely, I needed a break in order to have some distance from the story, to get some much-needed perspective.

Well, that's all over now. For the past couple of months, I've been meeting with the smart, talented and very supportive Rachael Hanel in our own little writing group. And now we've decided to start meeting on Saturday mornings at a local coffee shop to produce. To write. To not talk (too much anyway) and to just face the folders and get stuff done.

Evidence: Coffee cups, scones, laptops, Rachael typing furiously...

 

Rachael suggested that I print out everything I have written so far.

Here it is, taking up its own chair at the table.

A lot more than I thought it would add up to, and inspiration for writing more.

More Saturdays are on the calendar. Until then, I'm working on getting all these separate documents organized into folders and completing my outline. It feels good. Very good.
