Mental Traffic Jam
I finally got Amanda out of the malevolent ghost’s clutches as of last night. I’m not finished with the scene yet, though. More details to come later.
Too much is going on for me to concentrate. Saturday involved the weigh-in for the Cub Scout Pinewood Derby, which will occur on Friday. Sunday, I just couldn’t get the words to come out.
Yesterday, it was more of the same, adding the frustration of technical glitches to both my personal blog and WBA. I’ve backed up this blog and plan to become religious about that. I’ll do the same with WBA because you just never know what’s waiting around the corner.
Today, I have mundane tasks as well as a scratchboard piece I’ve been needing to finish for the past month. So, I think I will sign off and go do those. I’ll be back later.

Mental Traffic Jam - I love that.
Well, glad you at least got Amanda out of her misery. There’s hope for you yet

I agree with Melly, except, I expect you’ll throw her straight back into more misery. It’s the way writing works.

That’s the only way I can describe what happens. Amanda isn’t quite out of the woods yet, because Travis is going to force her to face the realities of her “gift.” The ghosts (both malevolent and otherwise) aren’t done with her.
So far the manuscript is 266 pages long, double-spaced. I’m beginning to worry that it will wind up at 500+. My poor laser printer, lol!

Hehe, my printer decided enough was enough and ate two pages. Then it refused to work again after that. I finished printing it at work
, but had to buy another printer.
Now, that one is out of date too. Never mind - it still works.

I had an inkjet that loved to eat pages. Fortunately for us, printers have come down in price.
