Back in the Saddle Again

Despite my best intentions, it seems the blog took a summer vacation. I did some healing, some injury and more healing. But other than writing in my trip journal during a trip to the west coast, I didn't really do any writing. Sometimes, for some, the feeling just isn't there. I think I needed to get out and enjoy life - spend some time in the sun, see new things and have fun.

Seeing the Pacific Ocean and the Redwood Forest for the first time was very inspirational for me. Watching my children looking around in wide-eyed amazement was just what I needed to kickstart my imagination. Ideas have been swirling in my mind. Hopefully a short story will appear on paper in a way that an editor will like. Maybe there might be a novel hiding in there somewhere, too. But at least I'm excited about writing again! That's the important thing, right?
