I”m talking about the stuff at work that’s been keeping me away from my computer and writing the last month or so. Only tweaking out a couple of pages or so every other day has really been driving me nuts. My creative muse has been repeatedly slapping me upside the head. She wants me to get back to work…pronto.

The good news…after next week, that should happen. We have open house at school Monday and my last day of class is Tuesday. My office at work is clean. I can see the brown top of my desk. Completion, organization, and a routine schedule is in sight. Hooray!!
Although, when I get back into the “real” swing of things this time, I’m not going to drive myself crazy with too many projects. I don’t consider myself ADD…but sometimes, I have a hard time focusing on just one project at a time. I don’t know if that’s typical “writer” behavior, or just Lyric “crazy” behavior. I do however, absolutely have two projects I HAVE to finish by the end of the year. The others brewing in the back of my brain may only come out to play occasionally.

So, what about you…those of you that are writers. Do you work on multiple projects? One at a time? Do you find it hard to work on just one project when your muse is “slapping you upside the head” with another one? And you readers too….I know I sometimes have two or three books going until my brain really settles down to finish one. Do you read more than one book at a time?

I’ll be away at class most of the day. After that, I’m going to see the Declaration of Independence on display at the Clinton Presidential Library with my mom. It’s on tour. It’s not that often you get to see a piece of American history. When she heard about it, she got us tickets ages ago. Taking the kiddos too.

Have a great Saturday!
