Pink Think: “Here I am, safely returned over those peaks from a journey far more beautiful and strange than anything I had hoped for or imagined – how is it that this safe return brings such regret?” – Peter Matthiessen
I’m back. Hello again, blog.
Feeling refocused. The break’s been good.
I had a nice Christmas, did you? It’s the day after; my kids are happy playing with friends and new toys, and I am writing.
I have been hard at work revising Ghost Moon Night. My goal is to complete this, re-query and shift into 18th century Philippines with Girl From Gurian so I can give my writer’s group another installment mid-January.
It is a challenge writing about the tropics amidst all this snow we’ve gotten. But the radio is off, so there aren’t Christmas carols to throw off the spooky mood I am trying to conjure up.
Another challenge is trying to keep all the storylines straight in my head despite the cutting and pasting of my revision. I can juggle three balls at once, literally, but this one is much trickier.
I am realizing belatedly that I needed to do this kind of work before I began querying agents the first time around. Ah, but live and learn.
This is short and sweet, just a quick hi. I’m going to go back to my story now.
