Today, while I was on a short break at a job, and I was doing some preliminary work on a script, a story idea came to me. As well as somewhere to go with a story in progress, which has been in progress for over two months, waiting for attention.
It used to be that if I was not actively writing, it slipped quietly into the background. It slipped off the radar into the depths of - I don't know what. But it took climbing out of the project and taking several deep breaths and longing to write before something even came up.
So this is good news.
My writing is here. It is in me. It is on my map even when my time is wrapped up in script preparation and financial responsibilities. The script work, the theatre, all of that is creative and it fuels similar brain cells. And writing is not being abandoned.
Nice to know.
