So the last two years, huh? I really don't have any words for what so many others have already eloquently described at length; the best I can do is throw my hands up in the air and make fart noises.
Yet, despite it all, I have made a lot of headway tackling some of my own goals during these Unprecedented Times (TM). I managed to stay active and lost somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 pounds. I got a new job that I'm really enjoying so far, after an almost comical and definitely incredibly traumatizing journey that I should probably write about. I started looking very seriously at my relationship with alcohol and cut my drinking back to almost nothing (something else I should probably write about!!)
And writing! I took a seminar through Grub Street in January called "Creating A Sustainable Writing Practice," and when I learned that the instructor was starting up a weekly Zoom writing group I signed up for that shit SO fast. And wouldn't you know, after the first session I decided it was time to dust off my novel and get to revisin'.
So I'm back babey, and I mean it this time. Will be posting in here when the spirit moves me, talkin' about the writing process and grief and snacks and mental health and whatever else is on my mind at the time. Not going to overthink or edit too much and let's see what happens.
Ever onward, ever forward.
