Current music:In This Moment :: Beautiful Tragedy

Explainable were I writing in blood
It's happening too often to be only a coincidence. Each day after a writing session, even if that writing session doesn't perhaps go so well (and perhaps aggravated if it, in fact, does not), I wake up exhausted, weak, as if I've done some great activity the day prior and it's left me depleted. It drains me completely. This was not the case in the past. Only with this novel. It is taking something very real out of me.

I kinda see that as a good thing actually :)

I agree. At least, I hope it will feel good when it's done, that it will have processed a lot of things for you. I know in the little I read that I felt the need to go on, to go through with what the character was feeling and facing, in order to get to some resolution. (I think a lot of people will identify with this kind of introspective journey.) I hope you find resolution by the time you get through it all. So glad to hear you're still going on it. (I've been away from LJ--is the Florida trip to come or already done and experienced? Wait, I'm writing under the reply to [info]isabella_darko, aren't I. And I've gone on long, as usual. So ... hello, [info]isabella_darko too.)

Thanks, Pat. (: I'm hoping to feel something of a rebirth, myself, spiritually, when I complete it, though I've a feeling that's going to be at least another year down the road -- even just the first draft. Unless something suddenly catches and it flows out of me, but I hardly envision that happening.

I will be in FL this time next week. Leave Thu., come back Mon.

I know you've been very busy but I hope it hasn't been too stressful or oppressive. That you've had some time for music, maybe some writing of your own?

I tend to agree, I just wish I were able to achieve more writing/progress on the days leading up to it to make it more worth it (:
