Hopping The Pond

02/29/08 | My Writings | 0 Comments

It’s now the end of February, and ONCE AGAIN I have missed one of my own personal writing deadlines.  I was on a real kick for a while there, but it seems to have fallen off again as of late.  I haven’t done anything for Simon in about two weeks.

What happened?  It was going so well!  I don’t really know, but I need a recharge.  Maybe it’s the monotony of life anymore, just waiting for school to be over so life can begin.  Who knows.

In an attempt to break up the drudgery of life, I have decided a change of scenery is in order to reinvigorate my mojo (since Dawn won’t share him!).  So, I’m hopping the pond to Simon’s hometown, actually… a little place called London.  Maybe you’ve heard of it?

I will be there for about nine days, with a day trip to Edinburgh (maybe I’ll see Jo Rowling!).  Guys, I’m SO excited!  I love London.  I’ve only been there once before, and only for a couple of days, but it was so wonderful that it has been engrained into my very being.  The moment I have some extra income, the first thing I’m going to do (after doing the responsible things and paying down my school loans and other debt… boo) is buying a flat in London.  It’s always been a dream of mine!

Anyway, that aside… I am going to spend the next nine days relaxing in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, and concentrating on my writing.  Hopefully, Simon will come to me more naturally in his home town than ever before.  He’s got a lot to tell me, that boy has.  I’m the only one that’ll listen to him right now, and his story needs to be told to the world.  With any luck, a good chunk of it will be ready when I get back, and the book can be finished not too long after.

Keep your fingers crossed for me!

I don’t know if I’m going to be able to update while I’m away… I’m sure I’ll find an internet connection somewhere.  But, if I don’t, I’ll see you all in a couple weeks!

Until next…
