New Plots and Problems

So what I've been doing is starting Spies and Secretaries 2. Of course it won't be called that. Right now I'm just randomly calling it Faust in my computer files. This is both frightening and a lot of fun. I like to plan things (yes, Thistlewitch mentioned the index cards for every scene and that is me). So right now my days consist of sitting down in the morning and doodling in a notepad. Occasionally I make some notes. And somewhere around 10:30 or so my brain sweeps up and puts the chairs on the tables and says that is all the ideas for today, we will reopen tomorrow so you better show up.

After that is some residual creativity. So far there has been house cleaning, bread baking, calligraphy, and some sewing involved. I also do a lot of reading and taking walks. What I'm not doing much of is talking to other people, watching tv, or going out. I become a bit isolationist and obsessive. That sounds a bit sicker than it is. But it's like trying to catch at snatches of a dream you've forgotten and that takes quite a bit of listening and quiet. I resent all intrusions as I try to pull it together.

So if I seem quiet and distant right now, that is where I am. I'll be back soon. And perhaps this residual creativity will spark a few more blog posts from me along with lots of bread. One can always hope.
