liptonrmHi, hello, is this thing on?
It's been a really long time, mostly because I was trudging through years of creative drought. Like, intense drought. I couldn't even come up with stories to tell myself while I was falling asleep, it was that bad.
Mostly, all I could handle was passively flipping through things on tumblr. Tumblr's a great place to be if you don't really want to think about things too much.
But now I'm writing again. Like, words to paper; story, plot, and character. It's kind of miraculous and I've missed it SO much.
Sadly, I'm not really "in" a particular fandom. Nothing has really scratched that obsessive itch in a long, LONG time. So I've fallen back on my old friends, Star Wars and Narnia. Also I kind of want to write an Oz fic? Which is just wild. Maybe I'm just tired of adulting so I'm falling back on all of the things I loved when I was a kid.
Well, whatever the reason, I'm just super-psyched that my creative brain is awake. I feel like a person again, not just some kind of automaton that works and eats and sleeps and then repeats it all again the next day.
Oh! And between then and now I've welcomed two new cats into my life! They are Rey (a tiny tortie and the littlest Jedi) and Jupiter (my doofus child and a space princess). I adopted them a year ago and I am really, astoundingly lucky to have them in my life.
