I'm baaack! (Insert your own scary music here) I am now moved into my new house and I'm mostly settled. I say mostly because there are still some boxes stacked up here and there, and I don't have everything put away 100% where I want it and will probably be shifting things around for months to come, but by and large, I am settled and it feels good.
I've been thinking about writing during this time, mostly thinking about how much I miss doing it when I'm not doing it. I've also been thinking about how writing has its seasons, a time to write, and a time to edit. A time to create, and a time to let it simmer in your brain. I've been going through a time to take a vacation, and starting next week, I'll be heading back into a time to revise. I have a book nearly done right now, in need of about five thousand more words and some chronology changes, and it will feel so good to dive back in and get it done.
Yes, writing, oh how I have missed you!

I'm thrilled to hear that you're writing again -- and almost done with a new novel. You are, after all, one of my favorite writers in the world!
Great blog, Tristi! So glad I found it.
WoW --- another book in the works! Thats Great! Something to look forward to!
Tell you the truth, Kerry, I never have quit writing, per se. I've got four novels completed since my last was published. Now the trick is, getting contracts for them.
But I'm glad you're glad!! :) And enjoy the blog.
AnnieFanny -- glad you're looking forward to the new book!
welcome back . . . your house was your ticket out . . . welcome back ... to the life giving grind that we laugh about ...
what would we do if the whole world discovered the joy that is writing?
If the whole world discovered it, there would have to be a lot more publishers, that's for sure. And we'd have to plant more trees, because we'd need more paper. And who would make the fast food dinners for us to feed to our kids when we're too busy writing to cook? Now that would be sad. For right now I'm happy to be in a minority.
