One Of Those Dreadful Sorry For The Hiatus Posts

[grayestofghosts]

Yes, this is one of those dreadful sorry for the hiatus posts.

My best explanation is that I was chugging away on my short story reading and then I got to a story that I hated so much that I stopped. Which is somewhat accurate, but also terrible, I think.

I'm in my last month or so of schooling, which is... scary, to say the least.

I have been writing. I have been editing the novel that I wrote last year. I have written a novelette (? it's 13,000 words) that is also getting revisions. I have one piece out on sub, which isn't much, but hey, it's something.

I have been thinking about what to put here. It's very weird in that, yes, I do, or did, have lots of essay-ish pieces to put on here, but I always feel terrible thinking about actually posting them... because... well... none of them were like, positive? It seems like all anyone ever wants is positivity or righteous anger and I don't really have either of those. So after some failed essays I've been ferreting away some bits and pieces of things that I want to write, someday, maybe, but like... it doesn't seem like there's much of a place for them, because there's no positivity. I don't know. I don't even know how to explain. It feels like anything I have to say in an essay form nobody would want to hear, and it's not really important anyway.

I'm doing the hiatus thing too, for various reasons. I agree that sometimes it's easier not to post than to post because who wants to read the thing...I used to post a lot more and maybe one day I'll get more into the habit. And maybe you will post more too :)
Congrats on the writing and fingers crossed for the sub being accepted! And yay last month of schooling!
