Snow.

Posted on by CV Whitfield

Woke up to snow.

I guess that’s nice. I don’t have to go no where so even better.

I have so much todo today. As in writing. I want to write. But I’m so inspired that I’m having trouble focusing and actually writing. That’s a new one, huh?

Not to mention the house is a mess. I’ve got to get that going. Maybe I will work on the house and that will just get me into a “do it!” frame of mind.

I need to listen to my old Jedi Master, “patience my young padawan.” Although I’m not so young anymore. But I still need to work more on slowing down both mind and body to get the work done. I find I’m so excited and wanting things to be done now vs. later. Just need to be more slow and easy.

Even 2 pages a day will be 60 pages in a month….

Out of hibernation….

Posted on by CV Whitfield

Just another day. Or maybe not.

Daughter went back to NYU. She had been home since just before Christmas. We were getting used to having her around but it was time for her to go back for the Spring Semester. It will be a bit quieter around here.

Today was the first big day to break down a project of mine. It’s this script that I’ve been working for a while with some old friends and colleagues. I was about half way done but just couldn’t shake this odd feeling that it just wasn’t right. I wanted to like it. I wanted to be happy with the progress. Yet, it was all wrong. So, now I’m shuffling some scenes around. I believe I determined the issue: the flow was off.

Work also continues on some prose stories. I really hope to start seeing more of them out of my head and onto paper. I’ve set some hard deadlines for myself and I know I can make them. That deadline: May 30th for a rough draft.

Then there’s a comic book project with another friend. Story is approved and scripting is moving along. Concept art should be starting.

Woah! Maybe I have too much in the hopper? Maybe I should slow down and focus. Actually, I think this will help me to push me out of my hibernation. Time to get to work. Push for those dreams….
