Where Oh Where has my Motivation Gone?

Oh where oh where can it be?

Finished off one of many articles that need doing. Should be working on another. I have everything I need. It's a simple profile peice that would take maybe an hour if I were to crank the baby out. But my crank done broke.

I just want to work on my fiction. Tre horrible of me. I want to get back to Ana, who is currently languishing on the Oregon Trail, waiting for her adventures to start so she can get home to the year 2006. I want to get back to the Rink Rats girls because Madison and Rielly are waiting for their story to be told. And poor Serena... she's sitting there without even a first chapter to breathe her to life. (I am sorry Serena R... I didn't name her after you that was just her name!)

Do I sound crazy?

The last thing I want to do is write a profile piece or an article on The new ultra sounds. Don't my editors know that I have whole nother worlds waiting for my attention... or more importantly don't my creditors know that?

Oh bother. I'll write it tomorrow. Isn't tonight the start of American Idol anyway?

I think your motivation flew into my neck of the woods! I've been working up a storm on my new manuscript. I'll send SOME of it back your way, but since it's taken me 7 weeks to even write one new sentence, I'm to be greedy and keep some for myself!

Hey Teri. I know kind of how you feel. I don't have any non-fiction that needs my attention, but I'm having trouble getting motivated to do anything else.

I thought I was a patient person. I was wrong. And I've only been waiting for two weeks as of today.

Teri,
It makes perfect sense that you would want to work on your fiction :) I'm waiting to hear great things for you and Rachel soon!

Hehehehe I enjoyed American Idol quite a bit ;)

I can't beleive I missed Idol!!!

And I get you on the motivation - I snowed under with Girl Scout stuff and PTA stuff.

Next year - NO VOLUNTEERING (well, except for girl scouts)
