I had a lovely long post here about writing, which dreamwidth ate while I was checking settings.  :(  It said it autosaved, but it only saved the title.  Silly thing.

Long story short, there was no writing for a couple years, then this weird conglomeration of events (my friend was murdered, my son was assigned a poetry project, and I found a small blank notebook that fit in my purse) started me writing Sad Poetry (my gateway drug to Regular Writing) and POOF I was writing daily again, just small vignettes of dailiness.  It's been good.  In about a month Steph and I are doing a Writing Retreat and then I'll get my butt in gear and work on a novel again.  :)  Can't wait!
