I guess I have more fans than I thought. I checked out my stats today and found a couple websites I'd never heard of before that are linking to my blog. They both seem kind of random, but I'm certainly not going to complain. Might even put links up to their sites in the near future.
In other news, I am still working on chapter seven of The Unstoppable. It has been, I must admit, terribly slow going. I haven't been able to get into a groove for this story at all yet. I'm hoping this will turn around soon, otherwise I might consider moving on. Though I have to be careful with this. I really really REALLY don't want to fall back on the habits that made it so hard for me to be productive before.
I've been learning the importance of going with your gut a lot lately. With some exceptions, I think I generally tend to doubt myself too much. With That Hideous Slumber I had to compromise constantly between what my imagination created and what actually flowed on paper. I guess I shouldn't expect this story to be any different.
So... not much new to report. I am really hoping that the new chapter seven doesn't disappoint me. I want to get rolling with a new story. But at the same time, I think, for some reason, that I'm procrastinating on finishing my last book. I haven't finished editing, and I haven't begun to look for a publisher yet. I think it seems like such a mountain to move that I'm finding it easier to simply bury myself in the next story and tell myself I'll worry about it later... but I guess that's a trust issue if ever there was one. With faith we can move mountains of any shape and size... without it... they remain.
I have had little faith lately, so I have accomplished little. But, with faith, patience, endurance, and yes, trusting in the writing ability God gave me... I can accomplish this. Lack of confidence has always been a problem for me, but I say that there is nothing wrong with that sort of lack... as long as I replace it with confidence (faith) in God.
