Two nice things to start off the week: <\/p>\n
1) The Sunvault anthology ToC<\/a> is out! I’m incredibly honoured to be among such fabulous writers. I’m really looking forward to this antho. <\/p>\n 2) My story “Creation” is included in Flash Fiction Online 2016 Anthology Volume II: Fantasy<\/a>. Yay! (You can get it here on Amazon<\/a>.)<\/p>\n I wish I had more energy\/time for writing and submitting new stories and poems, but alas, it’s challenging with my PhD and all. Also, I’m still concentrating my creative energy on novel revisions. I’m getting to the point where the bigger things have been fixed and it’ll soon be time for just adding smaller details \/ checking for consistency. And then for actually reading through the whole thing for voice and language. Not that much to go before it’ll be a finished third draft. <\/p>\n My work on it feels so inadequate, so slow – but I’m trying to be gentle to myself. I’m gaining more energy as the sunlight increases (spring equinox today! hurrah!), but I’m still recuperating from anxiety and exhaustion so I’m making every effort not to beat myself up over not “doing enough”. I’m working<\/em> on the novel, even if it’s far slower than I’d like. That’s the main thing. Slow and steady, slow and steady.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Two nice things to start off the week: 1) The Sunvault anthology ToC is out!
