So my head is aching and I don’t really want to write this
and I have nothing to say. Plus I keep making typos so this is likely to come
out as pure gibberish. I just keep typing words onto a screen hoping some idea
will appear out of the ether before my brain explodes out of spite (why, head,
why).
And that’s kind of been how I’ve been writing everything
lately. I’m at that messy point of slump where all the enthusiasm is dead but I’m
persisting anyway because I said I was going to do this, dammit. It’s not a
great place to be, but I know if I keep at it long enough the enthusiasm will
be waiting for me on the other end. I know this because I’ve been through it
before.
It’s the same thing I went through when I used to go to
bootcamp classes at the gym. Initial enthusiasm, how is this still going on
slump, followed by a resurgance of enthusiasm as I cross the finish line. It
happens every nano, too. Sometimes the slump wins and sometimes I win. I’ve
decided I’m going to win this time because I’m getting too close to what I want
to let the slump knock me out now.
I guess that’s all I have to say this time. I’m just
muddling. It’ll work itself out, eventually.

Best of luck getting through the slump! There's no harm in taking some sort of refreshing break, even if it's just a day or two. Give yourself a treat for making it this far in the race. A new nail color? Or a mocha (my fav!)?
I love your Queen of Broken Hearts cover, by the way. :)
Thank you!
Mostly my treat right now is the gothic romance (parody?) I'm working on. It's silly and fun and I'm enjoying getting away from all the ANGST I've been writing.
The last scene I wrote involved the main character finding a brooding duke who was lost in his own castle. Also, there's a horse. Also, there's a musical. In other words, endless writing fun. :)
