Starting today, I’m going to try to get back on the routine before I became possessed by the desire to finish my novel. It might be a rocky transition for me to get back to MWF, but I miss writing poetry, as much as I had been writing before. I want to fully reconnect with the music that I share weekly and be inspired by that music again. I feel free from myself, but I realize it’s only temporary. There’s still more work to be done. But I feel more capable of juggling both the novel and this blog again.
There’s been too much filler content. As I’ve said before, this blog has been and always will be therapeutic for me, which is its sole purpose. For the past few months, I have poured myself into my story. And now that it’s done, this space can return to its primary objective.
Of course, I’ve still got a lot of editing to do. I’m going to read it all start to finish and decide how satisfied I am with its current state and, almost assuredly, butcher the hell out of it. Doneness or not, whatever that may mean, I feel liberated, like a huge weight has been lifted off my chest.
Currently, I’m in the process of clawing my way out of my Kingdom Hearts hole. And just so you understand the state of my addiction, I completed everything in game one hundred percent and already started another playthrough. But it can wait now, especially since I have mixed feelings about it, albeit mostly positive.
So hopefully there will be more introspective pieces like this. More honest and substantive. And hopefully all this hard work will yield something yet.
Stay tuned.
