Random Ramblings

So much to do, so little time.

Do you ever wonder if successful authors were able to finish a novel because they were social recluses? Either that or they must have some godly typing skills to bust out a novel in short periods of time. It's a skill I would love to hone, in between work and family visits and friends. Sometimes I just want to lock myself in a cabin and return months later with a bushy beard and stacks of complete manuscripts.

But life has a way of leading you astray.

I shake my fist at you, oh forces of nature! How dare you give me rich experiences to draw from, but no chances to write them down! Perhaps this weekend I'll make some progress... (Disregard the other hundred times I've said that)

Put on a show for the viewers back home
Hide the truth so they'll never know
You hate what you got
Can't you love what you got?
So smile for the cameras that keep rolling
