Crossroads!

I'm just not sure where to go from here.  I'm really excited to dive deeply into my writing.  Steve and I are housesitting for the next three weeks and I'm very excited to use the peace and quiet and space to spread out my books and my thoughts.

I think I'm realizing that I'm afraid to go back to my manuscript.  I think, even though I know that it is fraught with disaster, there is a piece of me that likes it tucked in that neat corner in my mind as 'first draft: done.'  Pulling it apart sounds so messy and disastrous!

I predict a bit of moodiness and a load of frustration, mixed with unusual introversion and a splash of depression.  Such is the creator's process!  And honestly, I'm looking forward to it!

(Steve- don't say I didn't warn you. :)
