If we are to trust the last blog I wrote in June, it would appear that the sun has not shone for over 6 months since I vowed to write again when the sun came out. I could turn this into some sort of bleak metaphor about life itself, but the truth is there has been loads of sunshine all this time that I have enjoyed immensely and that's probably why I haven't even noticed how much time has passed since my last entry! [possible run-on sentence, Bunny - please revise...]
I've been busy doing all sorts of things like learning the art of burlesque, going on a whirlwind trip to Spain, moving from my beloved Wales to my beloved Canada, and most importantly, finishing the first draft of my novel! I'm currently in the editing stage, which means 3 things: 1. I am almost finished Draft #2! 2. I have discovered new and wonderful and horrendous modes of procrastination, and 3. I find myself editing all things at all times in my head (see above).
I've been going over my old posts today and discovered a trend - after periods of blog-inactivity, I tend to write mildly guilty posts about how I haven't written for a while and I'm not sure if I will anymore and then I go on and write about ten feverish posts about soap operas and Archie comics. This isn't necessarily a bad thing, but I've decided to start 2012 differently and say, without guilt, that I have not written in a while, but I will write more here in the future, especially as my book nears completion and I start having separation anxiety about my baby going off to university (literally... I have to submit it soon, PhD style).
Another trend I noticed as I perused the ol' blog here is that still, after all this time, the people that frequent my blog most often are those searching for Swansea Brothels, so I guess it's nice to know that some things never change.
