Sounds Like A Plan?

Oh dear, oh dear. I'm hanging my head right now. It's been months since I've written a blog entry. I really want to start writing them more regularly, but I never know what to say (which is pretty rubbish for a writer, right?).

Well, last month was crazy. Intense, stressful, fun, hilarious, tear-inducing. Game of Thrones. Three little words. So much impact. It was my first experience of taking part in the games. And, oh my gosh, what an experience! Honestly, I loved the challenge! I loved being part of such a great team of people. I loved feeling like I was important in something, like I wan't completely useless. That was a good feeling.

Of course, it wasn't without its fair share of stress. We worked so hard. I wrote 278 reviews in August! Or 268, I'm not sure. But, anyway, it was a lot. I loved the writing challenges. Because we had to do all of them, all within a short period of time, it kind of forced some good writing out of everyone. It's surprising what you can do when you have to. One thing the games showed me is how much I want to write from now on. Yes, I'll still write reviews, and take part in other things, but writing fiction is where my heart is.

Speaking of writing, I'm embarking on an exciting writing project with another WDC member. I can't say too much just yet, only that I'm pumped to be doing this.

Project Write World is about to start, and I'm part of Team GB. I've no idea what it will involve, but I'm looking forward to it.

I'm helping out with the PDG Camp at the end of August (if I can ever work out how to move those dang cars, Hannah ♫♥♫ )

Lyn's a Witchy Woman , I'm excited to see the Love Shouldn't Hurt contests running this month. I'm in the process of writing something for both of those. My story, this time, is even harder than my last one. But I will write it, because I know it can help. I want to say thank you for holding these contests. They help people like me so much more than you know.

October, I move on to NaNo prep (and yet another birthday!), then NaNoWriMo in November. So I have a busy plan of activities. I'm crediting with WDC Power Reviewers, looking after NAG Special Occasions Forum, and helping out with PDG. Busy is the plan.

Even so, I'm feeling a little flat. Maybe it's the post G.o.T. slump. I'm not sure. I guess I'll just keep on keeping on. Sounds like a plan.
