Been quiet for awhile...paralyzing self-doubt and an overactive imposter syndrome...st #crimebake for inspiration and reflection. Here's to ending 2025 on a strong creative note!

1200 more words yesterday. Meandering a bit in this WIP but trying to plug away. Goal of completing the WIP, edit like crazy, and maybe (hopefully) getting it in good enough shape to show to others!

Another 1400 words during two sprints with @sincnational.bsky.social Ponders write in yesterday. Realized I've got scenes in the drawer of abandoned novels that could very well work with this WIP. Will be searching my computer files this evening.

Another 1400+ words in my WIP...decided first 700 was more of an exercise in characters...probably going in the circular file...but the other 700+ words I like...nice big argument between two supporting players...

Looking forward to @sincnational.bsky.social Ponders write-in today. Busy work week, but took some notes and hoping for inspiration on my WIP...nearing the muddle in the middle. Hoping to write my way through it!

Sometimes the craziness of day-to-day life gets in the way of creativity. No writing done today. Tonight I'll take time to make notes of ideas for tomorrow's @sincnational.bsky.social write-in (Go Ponders.)

Just back from Crime Bake with tons of ideas (but as usual not enough time.) Inching my way forward with my new WIP. Fingers crossed I don't give up on this one!
