@Awolfcalledskya Hey, it's great to hear from you:-) Yeah, I've had a mixture of lack of time and hitting a wall :'( Hopefully I'll be able to update this week! I wanted to thank you for the rec on that blog, there are some awesome articles on there. How have things been with you?

Sounds about the same here - only, whenever I get the time, and the focus, I've been pet-sitting...and the dog I'm pet-sitting is determined to DISTRACT me. It's infuriating! I'm not quite halfway done chapter 10 because of it. =( Almost done, though. Then home for a week and half. 
          	  And not a problem! I love checking in on that blog. Every now and then they'll also do posts where they critique first lines or paragraphs, sometimes first pages. It's always really interesting to see how they de-construct something, get to the heart of it, and improve it.

Hey! Have you still been writing/working on Canticle? Noticed you haven't been active for a while. Hope everything's okay on your end.

@Jimbobi  Oh wow! That would have been a pretty stressful/big move. Let alone reverse culture shock after being in the east so long. I remember getting that after 40-45 days, let alone years. It would be much more interesting for you!
            I've been pretty good. Run off my feet with working and life as well, so writing went on a bit of a hiatus. Not so much because there wasn't time (I'm an addict - when my writing switch is on, I will write until I drop, no matter the time, and find it) but rather, I was just so exhausted. And blocked. I started getting a bit tangled up and of course, and while I knew how to ease it back to the main plot...I was throwing a tantrum about doing it. So procrastination and self-guilt-tripping ensued. Now it's going better, though! Working on 14 now, though highly distractible.

@Awolfcalledskya I've just moved back to my home country after quite a few years in   the East. Hopefully I'll be able to get round to some writing now. How have you been? How's the writing going?

Hello! Was just checking in to see how things are progressing on your end - from the lack of updates on both are ends, it seems like we're both hitting a wall, haha. I thought I must have missed an update, so came to check and was surprised to find otherwise!
