I’ve done a lot in the past two months, but the one thing that keeps sticking out to me is my lack of progress on We Live in the Dark. My brain knows how the story comes together, but the actual words on the page do not reflect that, and with all my other projects, this one isn’t calling to me at the moment. I need to get my ass in gear, so my critique partner can read it!

I have accomplished a lot already this year. Unfortunately, none of the progress lies in completed projects. I’m also working hard on another semi-secret project (a group blog, with my critique group!), and again, all of the progress is behind the scenes. It’s a bit frustrating, to say the least. I have to keep telling myself that doing a little bit each day will eventually lead to things being finished!

What projects are you working on? What kind of progress have you made?
