It's what I call my "grass is always greener" syndrome.<br /><br />At the moment I am just getting stuck into the first draft of a novel which I am fairly excited about as I have been waiting a long time to write it so I think I still have that rush. I hope so. I hope to fuel it and not let it die. In fact, it's not hope. I aim to. I will.Kerihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02798087116747300452noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248193231958936629.post-27507654216475622472010-05-30T06:36:50.128+10:002010-05-30T06:36:50.128+10:00I am so excited to be working on my new novel - I&...I am so excited to be working on my new novel - I'm about 12k in, but it's still new enough to me that I am so. frickin'. psyched about it.Guineverehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10058786129073896210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248193231958936629.post-21813900487383090922010-05-29T12:02:36.778+10:002010-05-29T12:02:36.778+10:00Yes, I love the feeling of a new story, so many po...Yes, I love the feeling of a new story, so many possibilities.

Right now I'm on a ship far to the north, in arctic waters, to acquire geophysical data. New datasets are very exciting. I follow this dataset all the way from the planning phase started last summer, till final interpretation two years ahead. Cool stuff indeed >:)<br /><br /><a href="http://cold-as-heaven.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"> Cold As Heaven </a>CA Heavenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07558100567878233142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248193231958936629.post-21387207027905362512010-05-28T20:12:15.789+10:002010-05-28T20:12:15.789+10:00Starting a story is the most exciting part, in my ...Starting a story is the most exciting part, in my opinion. Everything is fresh and while you are creating all of the elements, its surprising how often you, yourself, are surprised by the development. I love being surprised and discovering new things about characters and worlds when they are just coming about.Melissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12096764010151024050noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1248193231958936629.post-75717816625819499252010-05-28T11:18:49.772+10:002010-05-28T11:18:49.772+10:00Me too!
