Day 183 or 365:

In June, I blogged….

on being hangry

on your purpose

on hurting feet

on childhood

on empty space

on motivation

on connection

on killing your darlings

on numbers

on being Canadian

on minding the gap

on being open

on The City

more on The City

on the curve

on this little mutt

on being empty

on looking back

on moving forward

on where did they go?

on sunshine

on nothing

on partnership

on clouds

…June was an uncomfortable month for me.  It was frustrating.

I finally finished the chapter I had been working on since last January.  It somehow clocked in at 65,000-ish words.  There is no doubt in my mind that I will be severely cutting and editing it, but I can’t worry about that at the moment; I have to keep writing.  So on to the next chapter it is.  Progress, however,  has been slow.  I think I’ve only written something 6 pages in the past few weeks.

June was very disjointed – I actually took a four or five day hiatus from blogging, mostly due to work, largely just to give myself a break.  I have gotten very good at self-forgiveness this time around.

Now suddenly the year is half over and I can’t believe it’s July already.  But that’s okay with me; I am quite happy to see June to the door and bid it farewell.

Days blogged: 24 of 30

Progress on novel: 3,618 words this month – started “Chapter #3″….have since stalled.  Big time.

July better be….better…..

Namaste, and Happy Canada Day to all my fellow Canucks.
