I've been doing a decent amount of writing on my newest endeavor. Every time that I actually get myself to sit down and write, I usually turn out about 3 handwritten pages of material in a satisfactory amount of time. I think it's been going so well because I'm basically free-writing it. I think about what I'm going to write next a little bit in advance, and then when I sit down to write I just let it all out. And I know that some of it, as Ann Lamott would say, is shitty, but I'm not worrying about that now. I don't need to worry about that until I start revision.
Which I need to get started revising The Last Gods.
And I need to keep sending my query letters to agents.
How come it seems the more I do, the less it seems like I'm getting done.
Well I started out this entry slightly happy, now I feel sad.
