Trudge!!!

So the holidays were awesome, and I got a lot of really great things, spent time with friends and family, and ate too much.  The good news is that I'm back on editing the sequel to 'Madison', and I'm already halfway done!  So that's cause for celebration!  I hope two get it finished in the next few weeks then work on the cover.  I actually really enjoy doing my own covers.  One of my two majors in college when I started was art.  It's a passion that I don't spend a lot of time doing anymore, with my day job, and spending time writing.  I have to say, I enjoy writing more, but I love them in different ways.  I think the reason why I enjoy writing, is because it's a constantly creative process.  When I'm drawing or painting, there's definitely a lot of creativity involved at the beginning of the project, but once you actually start executing, it's mostly skill at that point.  Drawing lines, painting brush strokes takes talent, and I haven't honed my skills as much as I would like.  Can I do a very good job at times?  Sure!  But I don't like losing that creative steam.  I suppose with writing some of that happens to a point, when you're editing your work.  It's a bit more arduous, and less fun in general (at least for me.)  There are a lot of people that enjoy editing, and I applaud them, because it's not an easy thing to be good at, and it takes a rare talent and mindset to enjoy it.  So editors, thank you for being you! <3

Anyway, I love you all, and I hope the holidays were amazing for you! <3 <3 <3
