Motivation

Well, thanks to a wonderful internet forum friend Justcrash, I've gotten involved in AbsoluteWrite.com. Its really gotten me excited about writing again and actually progressing in what I'm writing.

Usually, I'll write a few pages of a story and let it linger and never return. (It used to be I'd write a few score pages, but my output, or input, or put put, has lessened over the years.)

Now though, I have deadlines. DEADLINES!!!

Ok, they're still sort of self-imposed because they are submission deadlines for anthologies. Now, I don't actually expect to get anything published anytime soon, I really really really need to polish my chops.

But, if trying to get stuff thrown down and edited up in time for submission, well that's practice, right?

We'll see I suppose.
