My head is not in the writing game. At least not fiction writing. I have a new full-time job, so for a week or two I was preparing my home office. Then during the past week and a half I have been settling in to the new gig -- getting back in touch with my contacts, doing research, scrambling to write one or two good articles every day, etc.
As a result, I barely have worked on any of the books I've written, despite the great professional feedback I got last month at the SDSU Writers' Conference. I am exhausted. My brain is so tired at the end of the day, I have no motivation to work on anything for my own pleasure. All I want to do after work is watch Downton Abbey or read a library book or do a little research for my new job.
So, until I can find my motivation again and/or start feeling a little more comfortable in my new job, I'm on a writing hiatus. I'm going to try not to make myself feel guilty or worry that the agents I met at the writing conference forgot all about me (I'm sure they forgot about me within days of the conference), but I know the guilt and worry will gnaw at me anyway.
* Sigh * Yawn * Shrug *
