What's been happening?

That is the question. Again, it has been months since I updated here - which is a statement on how things fare on the creative front.

I chose Restore as my word for 2016. One of the things I've restored is submitting a fiction piece each month. Thus far, I am 4 for 4 on rejections, with 1 story outstanding. It was a little disheartening to fill out the submission form on the last submission and realize the last time someone paid for my fiction was 10 years ago.

And I've been stuck. Editing and revising but not really creating anything new. (Editing, revising and uncertain what to do with the end product.) It's been months since I wrote a short story and two years since I've written a new novel. I'm feeling totally disconnected from the world of the Chaos books and I'm not sure what it will take to get me back there again.

The second section of Camp NaNoWriMo happens in July. I'd like to take part again but I have no idea what to write. I just know I need to step away from editing and revising.
