Hi M------,

I've received your email and kept it aside to think of it. I have been going through a difficult phase in my writing and so thinking of what sorts of rituals I do to get me to the right kind of attitude to write has been absent.

I've always relied on the random inspiration to make me write something. It's never been like - I get up and have coffee, i have something to eat, hopefully healthy (never that healthy for me), and then i face that page that I am supposed to fill with stuff - words.

I am usually having the usual slog during my daily life, laundry, pets, meals to prepare, snacks, and then while I'm looking at other things I get this idea it might be nice to write something. So I give into this idea and then I write - sometimes a small page or maybe more.

I do have some manuscripts in waiting but they're all asleep. They've not had much work on them. I feel somewhat like that they characters don't want to do much. They're also either depressed (like I am) or, they're just hanging out. Doing what characters do, I guess.

So what I do do, is blog. I'm a loquacious blogger. I blog about whatever I think of - my business as a Lularoe representative, as some sort of entrepreneur, and I promote my stuff. But it's a depressing thing when no sales come up.

I guess that's how it's been. I don't know how best to get into the right kind of path to write. I remember you used to say that you got up early and then had your coffee and hunkered down to writing.

I don't know what else to say so that's what I have been up to.

Thanks for your newsletters as they've been really helpful.

Sincerely,
Mary
