Writing Again

And it feels good. For a few reasons: First and foremost, DS is making strides in a new and positive direction. Which means that when I bury myself in my WIP ( which has a teenaged boy who suffers with an addiction ) then it's not as painful to 'go there'. It's also great to have something to look forward to.
When I first started writing some nearly six years ago I literally couldn't sleep, I was so anxious to get up and get back to the computer. My mind buzzed constantly, my whole being soaked up every creative thing I saw, read, experienced--whatever--yearning for an outlet.
Being back with my characters--who have remained in limbo for three months--feels like going home and finding everything the same, waiting for me. Indeed, each character seems happy to have me back!

How wonderful, that DS is on a good path now. That makes everything so much easier, no?

I can relate to what you said about hardly being able to sleep because of the ideas spinning in my head. That doesn't happen as much these days, but I realize growing into authorhood is a lot like a relationship. We go through that giddy romantic stage while we get acquainted with the craft then gradually we move into a more solid, grounded relationship that isn't always fun. It includes some rejection, some pain, and great joy.
Being a writer is such an interesting journey.
