Facing the Block

Well, things have definitely been crazy around here--a litter of piglets, school is starting in just over two weeks, the 4-H club is planning a trip to the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, etc., etc. Music is really taking off--I'm still scoring a film (I need to come up with a different blog or something for that). So that's been taking up a lot of time.

But lately, I must confess, I have been dealing with writer's block: the inevitable monster that claims the pen of every writer at least once during their career. It started coming up on me as I struggled to finish up Chapter 14, and hit me full force as I began Chapter 15. I think I've finally conquered it, though. I'm almost finished with page two this afternoon--I'll have to stop soon so I can get in worship-time with the rest of the family and maybe get in a drive with Dad. Gotta love it when our guardians take time off so we can connect--especially in the stage of life that I'm at right now.
