The Taste of Desperation

Published by Tamsen Butler under Other Musings Edit This

I want to sit down and work on my novel so bad that I can taste it.  If you’re wondering what that tastes like, I’d have to say it’s a bitter sort of taste and it’s really annoying.

This have been busy lately.  Work has been a little hectic and for one reason or another my tasks at home just won’t quit.  Today, just to keep everything straight, I composed two to-do lists.  I always have a to-do list for my writing deadlines, but today I also had one for all the appointments I had to make for the various members of my family and all the other jazz.

I have this fantasy that I can have a weekend all to myself, somewhere that has room service and a coffee shop close by.  I would hole myself up in the room, working on my novel all weekend long.  I would only emerge long enough to go get a coffee fix.

Doesn’t that sound divine?
