This is my space to talk informally about what I'm actually working on as a writer, my thoughts and progress.

Burned out
So much for my habit of writing every day. I've started teaching 2 sections of an online course with a total of 80 students, 3 rounds of grading per. It's eaten me alive. Plus, I've been participating in my writers' group, giving feedback, plus having guests and a million other things. So I've been writing one paragraph on my middle-grade fiction here and there and doing minimal revising of my sequel to the novel I submitted to the editor for review. I think part of the issue was I was working so hard for so long on that project that I'm a little burned out.
But in the next few days, I'm supposed to get the editor's review back on my manuscript. That was fast. Within short order, I will have those comments plus some I already had to look over and employ on my book. In the very near future, I will be up to my eyeballs in editing again. But for now, I've been having vision problem: I've been having a hard time seeing how I could fit writing in and having a worse time finding the ambition to do so. But that's all going to change momentarily.
