Hello, interwebs!
You might've noticed my vacations where spontaneously extended. It's not often that I pull the plug on my computer and leave the strange lands of the internets for so long. It felt strange, at first. I kept wondering what you guys were discussing, what I was missing. I was worried I'd miss the gem of information that I needed to push me further as a writer.
Then I realised I was being silly. I stopped thinking of my life in potential blog posts. I stopped wondering what the internet was going on about. I pulled the plug on twitter, on the forums, on everything but e-mails.
It felt so good.
And I got so much done! I moved in a new house, I took a hot air balloon trip, I finished my third draft, planned its revision, planned a short story in the same universe, saw four music concert (it's the Summer Festival here. Lots of concerts all the time for 10 days), had fun with friends and boyfriends and just... lived. Without the internet. Yes, I assure you, that's possible!
Now I feel recharged. I won't be posting every day of the week. I want to ease myself into this smooth and easy. I think I enjoyed the taste of what can be done with all the freed time. But I promise you, by the end of the week there will be pictures taken from a hot air balloon.
Until next time!
Sounds great...we need picture of the balloon trip!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Jen--I can't wait to see pics! Glad you had some time away from the life of a plugged in writer and got many things accomplished. Congrats and welcome back!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a good time! I think I'll be getting a vacation in September. . .

Thanks for the welcome back! The pcitures are great, though I bet I'll have a hard time picking which ones I put around here. ^^
