    Missing someone very, very much...

    James Joyce

    It is a fatal miscarriage, so ill to order affairs, as to pass for a fool in one company, when in another you might be treated as a philosopher. Jonathan Swift

    My mind is clear, but for obvious reasons, I am quite melancholy.

    Tired; taking a page from Daniel's book, my freelancing hit some major disruptions in 2005, which I've been chasing for four years now, letting my ex (unwisely) and my landlord consume portions of my time that I can ill afford. I gave into my compulsion to surf back here to take a mini break from manually retyping one of my published clips back into my hard drive, though I am not sure how it got lost. I have five queries and two submissions out, which for me isn't bad, but I'm feeling sorry for myself, and maybe slightly panicked, putting myself under too much pressure, as I want to earn something before I get really poor again, and within the last two years I made all of 95 bucks.

    It isn't that I'm a beginner; I'm not, but making sales is hard enough in normal times, and these aren't, and the resource sites from which I earned a decent wage for what I wrote are long gone, and starting a blog may not be right for me. Three years from 50 and counting, maybe I'll never reach my goal, which is simply to be consistent and established.

    PS: Someone please take my cats for a few days!

    Scared.
    The source of any bad writing is the desire to be something more than a person of sense--the straining to be thought a genius. If people would say what they have to say in plain terms, how much eloquent they would be.

    I am feeling rather lazy at the moment. Been on and off the Forum for the past two hours while pretending to do housework.

    Daniel, take a few deep breaths, go for a bike ride in nice fall weather, and regroup. When Oliver died I didn't even know where to start, and when the relocation team damaged my desktop, I did not know which end was up, but was fortunate that I had the resources to get a new laptop so that I could engage with Dell India (for technical support) at my own pace. Never trust anything to digital storage only. Some people like Google Cloud. I never tried it, but if you are a writer, you'll write, and you've learned something from this experience.
