No Progress

I want to apologize to my readers, but it looks like I'm not going to get much writing done in the near future, unless I get really inspired. I tried today, but I only managed to churn out a few paragraphs, and they felt forced. I just couldn't get the feel for it. I also tried starting a different (short) story, but no luck there either. In the end I am forced to admit that I cannot write unless I have the right mood, and that mood is rare these days, let alone coinciding with free time to write.

I definitely do want to continue writing at some point - I want to recapture the way it felt when I started writing MV. I'll try to keep this blog updated from time to time, to let people know that I haven't given up, and to report on any progress which might come to pass.

Poor Timing

Sorry I haven't been doing much writing lately. I really am having trouble feeling "erotic" these days. I'm hoping that sometime this coming autumn I'll be able to at least reduce the dosage which I'm on. I'll have to wait and see though. Reduced libido is annoying as hell, but isn't truly debilitating, not like some of the crap I was experiencing before this stuff was prescribed.

Timing remains an issue too. I had some great thoughts on the drive in to work this morning, and would have loved to have been sitting in front of my computer to write a scene. Unfortunately, I'm not insane enough to try typing on a laptop while driving a car. I've tried dictating into a recorder before, but it doesn't work for me.

Tonight, all I did was reorganizing ideas for future stories. Which isn't terribly creative, and doesn't really do anything toward getting reading material into my readers' hands.
