It’s now the 10th of December, and I’m still writing.<\/p>\n

You might have noticed a stream of little bits of writing in a “Small Stones Dec 2014” category. It’s from the River of Small Stones idea which started a few years ago. I wrote about it then. It’s a great idea to get \/ keep your creative juices flowing in the post-NaNo slump. I know they’re not very good. I’m no poet, and I don’t have the breadth of symbolism required to make them really<\/em> good, but I like them. I have forgotten to upload them each day, which is why there’s a slew of them uploaded just now. But I do write them every day, otherwise I’d forget what I had been doing.<\/p>\n

On NaNoWriMo, I wrote an end of month update here:\u00a0http:\/\/gerald-hornsby.com\/blog\/2014\/11\/30\/nanowrimo-2014-its-all-over-almost\/<\/a>\u00a0And since then? \u00a0I’ve continued to write the City in Flames story and, as of this moment, I’m at 62,714 words, and nearing the end. I’m pleased with how it’s been going, averaging nearly 1,400 words per day during December.<\/p>\n

I’ve also been on Twitter a bit more, under the handle\u00a0@AuthorGerald<\/span><\/a>\u00a0if you want to follow me.<\/p>\n

And that’s about it for the moment. Time to write!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
