Hi *BigSmile* I have been away from posting and writing for a while. But I am back. My absentism began shortly after this past Nano. I was having so much fun and writing on my novel...then it ended. I was all alone. I allowed myself to get lost in my book, make a mess of it, and then quit.

Stupidly, I think I became a bit depressed. BUT my novel/Muse refused to let me be. I picked it up again, kept many of my ideas, and started all over again. I am doing great. *BigSmile*

So I thought I'd drop in and say hello and welcome to newcomers. WDC soothes the wild, savage beast.

Never say that becoming depressed is stupid. It is a natural process. We put so much of ourselves into our writing that if a work, especially a long work, goes off the rails, it is like a part of ourselves collapses.

I am glad your muse has continued to nag at you, though. And welcome back. *BigSmile*

I'm glad your muse kept at you and welcome back.

Welcome back, Chrys O'Shea - Writing again Author Icon. I went through a short hiatus about ten years ago. I was just going through some things life tends to throw at us and couldn't get any writing in gear. It finally passed.

Best of luck with your new writing endeavors.


Know the general feeling.
