Turning the corner
I think I'm turning the corner with my writing. I've been stagnant for too long. It's been months since I've written any fiction. But the other day I queried a publisher about one of my manuscripts. It didn't take long until I had a response... and they asked me to submit it!
Since then it seems as though I've "had more time" to write. Obviously, if nothing else has changed in my life, I don't "have" more time, but I'm making more time.
I think I learned a lesson from that... I won't ever "have time" to do anything unless I "make time" to do it. Every year for the last five years I've written a novel in a month during NaNoWriMo - but I don't "have time" for the other eleven months of the year to write more than a story or two? Interesting. I guess I can't say, anymore that I don't "have time". It could be argued that I don't have motivation, I suppose... but "I don't have time"? I think I've debunked that myth, at least in my own case.
