Jax's Artistic Journey...

Not the kind of storm that I dread...thankfully Gustav and Hanna decided to visit someone else! WHEW!

Sometimes I just feel absolutely drained. No matter how much work I produce or how much I try to stay on top of things...it doesn't seem to make a dent. I've been doing freelance for the past 5 months and it's tough. Trying to write full-time is incredible but I'm not where I need to be...should be. There's a lot going on right now and I start to wonder when life will level out for me.

Don't know why but I keep getting pulled back to my really dark contemporary. I need to get my deadline done but I can't stop thinking about this story. It's like a rainy day in winter when you're drinking hot tea and staring out the window while you're wrapped up in a Chenille blanket. This is that kind of story. I'm so obsessed with it and I think if a story really draws you in..you need to write it. So, I'm plugging away and I hope it's not one of those things where you look back and feel it was all a waste of time. My characters are two very emotionally scarred people (I know, my trademark storytelling), but the difference is that they handle it exceedingly well. It's actually uplifting if you allow yourself into their world. It's going to very sexy, tender, and romantic. I'm such a sucker for a good love story.

I'm going to get a hot cup of tea and a dollop of cream and I'm off to write!
