Writing while Healing

I'm still stuck at home healing. My jaw is still wires shut, and will be for a few more weeks. It's amazing what the lack of chewing food will do to a one's mind. I've had  a lot more time to be creative, and just write. I had an idea for a short story, so I decided to get it out of my system. So, I put my novel to the side in order to get thsi short story out.

I literally started with just an opening, and I didn't know where I was going with it, but after just continuously writing, my story was really started coming together. I was hoping to get a good 10 pages, but as the ideas starting flowing my short story turned into a novelette. I'm almost done with it, so I'll be picking back up on my novel soon. I'm not sure what my plans are with the novelette, but I'll figure it out soon enough.

I also spent a good portion of yesterday revising some short stories I did for school a couple of years ago. It's amazing how much I've learned, and how my creativity has grown over the last two years. I made a decent amount of changes to the stories, and I'm glad I went back to them. I will post an excerpt later this week.
