Thoughts: On Days Not Writing

As most of you with full-time jobs and/or adult responsibilities can relate - I sometimes find that I am left without the time and energy to “indulge” in my hobbies and creative passions.
Especially with the last few weeks, where I’ve been beset by both things at work and home repairs that I need to get done.

Unfortunately, this has left me unable to make any real headway on the next Retelling Myths.

However, even though I haven’t been writing, I do find that I’m still creatively engaged.

For example, I’m still thinking about and making notes on how I want the next Retelling Myths to go.
I’m still working out things like structure, narrative, and story beats in my head and writing them down.

I’m also still, as ever, thinking about other stories as well, and writing down notes for those.
Not to mention that Audrey is now, hopefully, getting back on track (more on that later, I want to see how things are going first).

So, even though I haven’t been able to dedicate a lot of time to the next story that I have planned, I still find that I’m engaged in the creative process.

And I’m sure that’s what it’s like for a lot of you as well.

I don’t really have a point for any of this, besides to have a post to send out today.
And maybe to just… commiserate with those of you out there, who’re struggling like me.

So, the silver lining is, I guess, that this all gave me the topic for today’s post? 😅

See you in two Mondays!
