The Road to Hell...

I had every intention of submitting a blog post a week. I had intended to write a synopsis of my NaNo '08 novel. I had intended to write character studies of the characters from that '08 novel. I had intended to write the latest chapter of my just for fun, X-Files-inspired story-with-no-apparant-end epic. I had intended to sketch out the next chapter of my unfinished NaNo '07 project...

Instead, I read.

Sometimes intentions can be the road to a personal private hell. And sometimes they can be the road less traveled and sometimes they can be what we wanted but was never intended to be.

I've started another just-for-fun project...and I no longer feel guilty for them. All writing is practice, and, although I've not been doing what I'm meant to be doing...I am writing.

So, here is a half-baked blog post, just so I can cross an item of my "I had intended to..." list.

  1. Much of the writing I feel I ought to do just sits around and bugs me. Usually I don't get anywhere with it until I either read a book or write something else I am more intrerested in. :-)
