So why is it that I've seemingly abandoned my blog?
Is it that I've stopped work on my novel?
Nope. I've edited over 200 pages and am still working steadily.
I think it's because of The Artists's Way. Every morning I write three pages about whatever's rattling around in my head, including my thoughts on the writing process. The morning pages have helped me deal with my writing-related fears and so I haven't had much to blog about. Guess I need to come up with a new theme for Pointed Squiggle. I am finding a balance and feel much more at peace about pretty much everything. Amazing, huh?
Right now I'm editing the 5th 50-page chunk of my manuscript. This is the trickiest chunk by far since the story here has a couple of holes I've been trying to figure out how to fill. I think I've got it worked out, though and once I have this section nailed, I'm expecting the remaining chunks to go faster. As nutty as it is to admit, I should be ready to send the whole thing out before too long.
Wow!

Hi Renee:
Would you recommend THE ARTIST'S WAY? I have it, but I haven't cracked it open yet. Just don't have the wherewithall for a big process right now, seems all I can do to feed everybody, some days...(G)
Cindy- I know what you mean about all there is to do already and how tough it is to squeeze in something new. I'm going to write a blog entry about my thoughts on The Artist's Way, which should answer your question.
