I realized this morning that even though I am enmeshed in the take-over of ByLine Magazine that my writing was going to fall as far off the map as it has. I can't remember the last time I even thought of the characters who were populating my novel, nor have I even penned a simple piece of flash fiction. I did, however, sign up to be a moderator for National Novel Writing Month so I know I will be "forced" to produce and I think that is the kick in the butt that I need to get back to my characters -- who at last writing -- were in the midst of a storm-tossed sea!
