Blog resumption

Last night, I finished the final revisions on my thesis.  231 pages, 73,000 words.  The feelings of accomplishment and relief know no bounds. 

What is the most difficult piece of writing or writing project you have ever done?

Blog Hiatus

This blog is going on hiatus while I tend to family matters and finish my thesis.

Playlist of your life

I'm thinking of going through the playlists on my various devices and writing down the memory that goes with each song.  Is there a particular song that holds a vivid memory for you?

Writing schedule

While working on my thesis, I seem to have figured out the best, most sustainable writing schedule for me.  I write as soon as I'm up in the morning (and have caffeine in hand), and late in the afternoon (around 4-5 o'clock).  This has become easy, and actually pleasurable for me (not forced).  Have you figured out your best writing schedule, time-wise?

Other genres, other rooms

A friend of mine just started writing his first cookbook.  I have published a couple of recipes online.  It's gotten me thinking about other types of writing we all could do.  If you veer away from your normal form of writing (prose, poetry, graphic), what else might you feel inclined to turn to? It's always good to keep your options open.

Writer's Block

Have you ever had writer's block?  How did you overcome it?

Writer's High

I'm coming down off the high that is an acceptance.  That's the thing about writing, it gives you these highs.  The other great high that writing gives you is that feeling you get when you've written something you know is good.  And even if it isn't really good, it's something you're very happy with.  I actually experienced both highs yesterday, maybe a banner day in my writing life.  So, question of the day is: what is your favorite writer's high?
