I wish I could say that I have been too b
usy to post because of writing. But since I always try to be honest, let's try out the truth. My mind right now is such a jumble I can't even figure out what to write on my blog.
I have tons of works in progress and I'm excited about all of them, but I just can't seem to focus on any one long enough to get it done. I wouldn't say I have writers block per se I'm just anxious. I want to get so much done so quickly that I make myself nauseous.

Additionally, I had a mini-melt-down last week, I'm over it now. So I know that a lot of people do not read F/F so I have been trying to do research on the best places to market my work. I have noticed that even when the public forums/yahoogroups that I am a member of advertise GLBT days they really only mean the G and B. Thank goodness I write other genres or I would not even get a nibble for my work.
I'm also very tired from the day job. The workload has been increasing since the success of our last major project, add to that my boss will be going away on maternity leave soon. And I'm trying to catch up on a whole missed month of work.
Lately, I've been telling a friend of mine that I want a job where I don't have to think anymore, some kind of mindless work, something automatic. She doesn't think I would last long in one of those. But really if I earn the same amount as I do now, I would satisfied at least for now.
Amarinda Jones did a blog post about being a pleb, click her name to check it out. I think I need to go lower on the totem pole, because even though I'm not a manager, too many people depend on me for too many things. Oh and since I don't consider writing work or a hardship I would love to dedicate more time to that than the day job.
Anyway, that's enough whining for one day. Until I think of something else to say . . .

Yeah, plebs rule...plebs get to write at work, leave early, hide out as no one cares what you are doing so you can get a way with a lot.
You need a job like mine...2 desks in 2 different offices so no one ever really knows what I'm up to.
I know what you mean about too much stuff to write and not enough time to concentrate on any one thing. What are we going to do to get over this?
I have heaps of time to write at work - you two are not trying hard enough to nick work time
I don't have as much time as I use to. Although, I have started to cover all the windows in my office and keep the door closed so people can't see what I'm doing anymore. But now they want me to keep an updated log of what I am doing at every given moment.
