Writing

The other day at work, I pulled out my notebook and began writing a short piece. I had been thinking about what the editor from Boston Lit Mag had said about my stories not having the twist ending they were looking for. So, I've given myself the challenge of wowing that woman. Hopefully I'll be able to submit something soon. I really want to give it another go but I also don't want to rush it. Another one of my vices...

I'm also battling a small bout of Writer's Block right now with the fourth novel. I just hope the story's not dragging. I've started re-reading what I've written so far but I'm only about five pages in. I let a friend read the first novel in this series (vamps), just waiting to hear what she has to say. I'm of course questioning myself but I'm keeping it to a minimum and trying this whole 'patiently waiting' business I've heard of. I guess that's why I haven't ripped my hair out yet over not hearing from those agents yet. I might send out a few this weekend when I get paid. Hopefully some of them aren't on hiatus.
