My mind is scrambling! It is a nonstop scramble that is keeping me up at night. The scrambling is with the endless short stories I have rattling about, my novel series I desire to keep moving ahead and the several comic book series I am writing with my artist. Trying to maintain some sort of focus is becoming difficult and I do not have ADHD or any other form of concentration issues. In fact, I have great concentration and can sit for hours keeping my focus on one thing. Technically, I am doing this now since all of the above is considered writing but really I am scrambling.
I have a schedule and each night is dedicated to accomplish one item but as I begin the inking an idea will creep in around one of the other stories. How frustrating! The real issue is my desire to have them all done and NOW. I must take a writer’s moment, look at my outline I have before me and push the other voices to the side allowing the one with the conch to have their voice. Easier said….
Am I complaining here? Nah, I am just in a moment where my ideas are scrambling my attention. This is a great thing to have by the way since writer’s block seems to happen to other writers. I am fortunate enough to not experience this lack of idea or motivation to ink it out. I get to deal with the scramble.
Now if I can find a way to put the egg back into the shell whole again I think I will be okay or maybe just stop complaining and write already. I do enjoy this writer angst though! I want to be no where else but with the words during these moments.
I hear my novel calling me back and really want to be there for her. Happy writings…..
