articles of 2012

2012 is over. So I should probably be over it.

As usual, I don't think this list is comprehensive, but it shows I am clicking on things. Actually, this list seems really, really, really short. Like seriously...oh well.

Usual disclaimers: No guarantee any links will work. Not a comprehensive list. Don't read if there's going to be something that offends you.

I Stand All Amazed

This may not make sense. It's jumbled. But sometimes you just need to write. Or blog. And so you do. I love when stories just flow out of me. When I don't have to wrack my brain and consider this and that, and wonder about the other, and then go back and make sure that everything is plausible, or realistic, or coming across the way that I want. When I just sit down, and the words just pour forth, like a cup running over. That's been happening to me recently on some pieces I'm working on and I'm quite pleased. Interestingly, and maybe not by chance, these pieces are ones I've been doing by hand. I wrote 1600 words, and then another 1200, and then a third set I've yet to transcribe into type. But it's the old writing - the way writing used to be for me. The joy is there, and that's so, so important to me.

If I had an inkling, then I would know for next time. I would get there faster, I would break down less, I would not waste as much energy and effort getting absolutely nothing accomplished. And part of it may just be waiting. Everything should be balanced. Play is just as important as work. If you push and push and push to work, then you will fail. Some people have developed an ability to dig deep and "push through," but I think those people are white-knuckling and they are gonna break down. When I broke down, I just embraced it. I struggled, sure, and I said, I don't like this and I want this go away and I want to get things down and have th

Change is upon me. And I'm so excited. New Out: Moving back to Utah. Because Florida sucks and I'm sooo tired of drama. And being here. New Look: Summer is here, and that means it's time for a change, right? Right. New Outlook: Taking my life back, regaining control, and moving forward in a positive way. And now, let's take a moment. A moment in memoriam. For what was, and what will be again. And now. The moment you've been waiting for. The NEW. Hate me, maybe. But I was tired of the old, and ready for new. Bring on the change.
