Okay, eventually I'm going to do something active on here, maybe. I think I say this pretty frequently don't I? "Oh I'm going to post stuff..." yeah, just as soon as first copyright rules change which is somewhere in the future of never in all likelihood, and understandably so. I could post chapters from longer works, but I don't like to do that because there's something about posting a chapter here or a chapter there that seems fragmented, incomplete, and while you can read in a fragmented way the truth is a story is meant to be read as a whole piece.

So...at some point I might post some old stuff that I'm beyond wanting to actually submit anywhere, and eventually the stuff I've written recently will probably be old stuff I don't want to send out anymore. I did write a response for the Proseplease non-fiction nook with the expressed purpose of putting it up and being a good proseplease member (not such a shining example at the moment the proseprompts moderator who doesn't ever post any of her own work...) But now that I've gotten it written out I'm clinging to it and seeing potential like I always do...so, it may or may not make it up. I'll decide later after a few days and some edits. I have to wait at least a few days to even attempt to edit something, because I think there needs to be a separation between the writing of a work and going back to edit it. It gives me time to collect my thoughts and figure out how to edit a raw piece into what I want it to be. Now if I can just motivate myself to send stuff out. You know, at this point it's not even a lack of confidence--although it certainly was last year--it's just plain apathy.

It doesn't help that I have a lot going on in my life right now. But honestly, that should never be an excuse because it's when I have a lot to do that I get the most done. So...here's to hoping I start doing more now that I've got a lot of stuff on my plate.

In the meantime, if you want to see me being creative I believe October is when I do my next proseprompt (had a lot of stuff to do this month so gave me the month off.) So...October, go to proseplease and maybe consider submitting for the proseprompt if your a member, if not and you love to write then definitely join, it's a great group of people and although I didn't on the first proseprompt I did, I now comment on all proseprompts submitted for mine. The goal is to eventually comment and critique all of them because that's really the way it should be. Also...speaking of that, really you should just go to proseprompts and write for any prompt if you so choose because it can be worthwhile. I know I'll be writing responses to some of them even if I don't post them.
