Good luck. I got about 80,000 words before Covid hit and made working difficult-to-impossible and now I can't get into that mindset anymore.


EDIT: I did manage to complete a short story of 4,392 words. I'll probably change every single one during the second draft.

Back when I considered myself a writer, I would work on three different pieces, all completely different in genre. Having a dry spell was rare as bouncing from one lock to another rarely happened and sometimes generated an idea for the other. Had some minor success only in that three publishers responded, but they basically said the same thing. Meh!
A humans desire to live is exceeded only by their willingness to die for another. Even god cannot equal this magnificent sacrifice. No god has the right to judge them.-first tenant of the Panotheust
