I feel the need to post here more often

I don't know why, but I do.

Anyway....

Lost Friends

I find myself, the last couple of months, thinking of some very close internet friends that I seem to have lost. Some have left me, others I've put to the side not for any real reason, but really just because distance, and my own battles going on.

Living on the west coast now, it's harder keeping up with my English friends, and I do miss them, quite a bit. I miss their stories, their times talking to me. I understand the whole "time zone" thing - I do, but I wish they'd have maybe let me try harder.

Reading

I also miss the ability to read. I miss the ability to sink into a book and just be in the book for a long while. I dunno where that ability went, but it's not here and I'd really like it back. Maybe I need new books? I dunno. It's something I've noticed that has changed as I got older.

Unemployment

I'm so tired of being unemployed. So tired. I want a job. I want any job. I want to be back in it, so that I have structure to my weekdays again. I need that structure in order to write. Editing is going fine, but writing is a damned struggle that it shouldn't be.

I've not even had nibbles recently and that bothers me. I've pummeled pretty much everyone with my resume, and... nada.

Anyway.

That's what's going on here. I need to start writing my next post for GYWO. Which is all about how to get your writer brain to work. Ain't I a poser?
