Anne N. Mouse: Blog

So, as I noted in my last post, nothing I've started seems to get finished, except some pretentious, autobiographical poetry...
Besides It's a Helluva Job I've got two other pieces started. Well actually three or four, depending on how you count them
It's a Helluva Job is stalled, because I've written myself into a corner and only dynamite might get the story finished... IE all my characters meet a firey end....
The same holds true for the other pieces. Unless I kill my characters I keep wanting to add more,even if the story has essentially died two chapters ago. But the death the story died left a zombie in its place!

The Dilemma,
A blank page,
Pleasure,
Beyond measure,
Analysis,
Paralysis!
Where?
When?
Why?
Who?
How?
Disorder…
Order,
The task begun,
But, what’s the end?
For in life,
I’ve no goals met,
No tasks complete,
So to what I’ve begun,
upon that limitless blank page….

If it wasn't a blog this should be centered... 'Tis a description of my writing dilemma... and why nothing much has reached the published stage.

Where I live, since Feb 1 I've had 3' of snow. Needless to say, with 600' of driveway, I'm concerned that if things don't clear up soon I'm going to be in serious trouble!

The fires in CA are a long way away from me.... Thankfully.

I don't know where to recommend you give help if you want to. I've used services from the international red cross. I don't know if they have a specific campaign for SoCal... but if you're like me and strapped for resources, prayer is better than nothing.

As the title says, I hope you all had a good and safe Christmas.

Some of the reason that I've not gotten much written is that when the HDD in my old lappy died it took a certain amount of my writing with it. I do have a link to my google drive which leads to my current major project, which happens to be the only thing that I had on a thumb drive, or at least on a thumb drive which I can currently find... a disorganized house doesn't help in situations like this. Nor did saving when I hadn't copied all the files from my documents folder to the newest thumb drive I had acquired.
