I'd Be a Mountain-Top Pansy

9/1/2015

After a relaxing weekend at a volleyball tournament in Chicago (my wife and I are kind of nuts about that sport), I'm back into the swing of things.  Back to work, back to work.  The Footsteps of Cain is coming together, narrative-wise; I think I may have worked through some problems and found a better way to place some hooks in the beginning to pull the readers through.  LOL, I'm sure this is really compelling considering the non-specificity I'm providing.  I guess I'm sadistic.  You shall not know until you know!

If you'll ever know, that is.  I'm trying to hit this thing as hard as I can over the next couple months...make as much progress as I can before the holidays hit with their car trips and multi-Christmases and bustle.  I hate taking breaks from the work...I'd rather live and breath it until it's done.  Yet, as usual, the real world leaks in no matter how airtight my bubble is.  I wonder if there's a solitary cabin at the top of a mountain somewhere that I could get a lease on?  Yeah, just me, an old-timey typewriter, a bear-skin (for some reason) coat, and a scraggly beard, pounding away at an obsession, until one day I could descend from the peaks clutching those precious pages, half-mad.

Nah, I'd never survive it.  No internet connection?  I mean, come on.  The inane, unborn tweets would build up in my brain until I had a mental cave-in.

And so, precious Time and I are fleeting partners.  So why am I blogging when I should be working on the WORK?  Good question, maybe-you and me.  Off I go.  Have yourself a merry little Tuesday.
