100 Days Of Adventure

Thu Oct 8 23:27:27 MST 2009

Wow, time flies. Today marks 100 days since I set sail on what I then called my writing adventure. Back then, though I was sailing into uncharted waters, I thought I knew what to expect: a business of writing, not terribly different from what I was then doing, except with more time for writing. That's not quite what I found. Instead, this cruise has been an adventure through surprising seas of self-discovery and elimination, though these have, thankfully, led to real writing progress.

All this has been documented here before, and I don't need to go into it again. As I pass this milestone, however, I wonder what I can expect in the next hundred days, and beyond. Once again I see the sailing as rather straightforward, almost uneventful. But it's hard to see what might be over the horizon out here on the ocean. I might be sailing into terrible sea monsters, or a tropical paradise.

And whether monsters, paradise, or merely gentle waves through a sea of productivity, it's more fun that what I left behind.
