So it's been a year since I have posted anything at all, and that sucks quite a lot. I really enjoy writing these tales, but the last few years have been a complete blur of suck, save some really great bright spots...
First and foremost has been my love, who I have known for the better part of 15 years, but there has always been one reason or another, that we have not been available to cultivate our mutual desires to see what we could be together. Well that finally came together about 4 years ago, and it has been amazing for the most part. There are always bumps in the road, and no relationship is perfect, but this has been the best one I have ever been in with absolutely any other contenders for that belt.
Secondly, I have a new job and it is awesome, I have the best boss ever, and work with a great team. This too has been a long time coming, and the last 6 months or so have been pretty kick ass, so win/win there. If you have ever worked in the IT field, you know that is almost a unicorn of it's own.
I am also a musician, and I work with a great band, although not in the band, I work with them constantly and absolutely love it. I do miss actually playing, and I will be doing something about all that soon, just going to add pieces when they work, instead of forcing pieces together. It is too artistic and personal to work with people you can't stand to be around multiple times a week/month depending on schedules. So in all due time it will happen.
All of this aside, I have not really written anything creative or even really been at the top of my game. I don't really know what has caused it, however I do know some of the contributing factors.
I have been extremely busy at work, so when I am not at work, I just want to veg the hell out, turn off the brain for a bit and float. I have been doing major implementations of IT infrastructure for my job since I walked in the door, and some of that is finally slowing down. No time to write is no longer a valid excuse.
Motivation has been pretty much the same, turning off the brain every chance you get isn't really conducive to getting motivated on something you have never really locked in on consistently doing, so as of now I am going to spend 30 minutes of every day writing. I am not promising that I will post everyday, and I certainly won't post everything I write, but I will be writing again damn it. so motivation excuse is in the scrap heap as well.
Inspiration... I don't know how that will come together just yet. I will continue to write short stories, but I will also be writing more real world posts. The first of which will probably be later today. And will deal with some of the reality in my own world. I have to keep this anonymous, but it will be more real life.
I am looking forward to getting some of this out and on to some form of media and I hope you enjoy reading it. Please feel free to give feedback and comment and question.
Thanks.
