In a Rut

Like the title say, I've hit a rut with my writing ever since I finished The Last Day. I've tried sitting down and writing new stuff, transferring from paper to computer, even sketching some-hoping I break out and be able to finish something.

I wish I could blame it on my muse, but he's constantly flinging ideas at me that are, sadly, just hitting me in the face and then sliding off to lie wasting on the floor. I think I'm mostly depressed. The last couple of years have seen my family get hit by a four severe medical situations that escalated in severity as they progressed, peaking with my oldest son being diagnosed with brain cancer. We are in our six month of remission, but now my oldest daughter is sick and we are waiting for test results over the next two weeks and praying it isn't something severe.

It's always something here. My wife jokes we are cursed and if you look back at our eighteen years together- it has been one rocky sum' bitch. Anyway I'm just fumbling through my thoughts, trying to figure out why I can't finish Galen and Mellay's tale or explore one of the many other stories begging to be told from the realm of Allura. Hopefully this fog of darkness lifts soon and I can find my way back to my computer and accomplish something.

Anyway...

Happy Reading
