Sorry for not Writing Lately
It occurred to me that it would be polite to explain why I haven't been able to write much of anything lately. Part of the reason is that college is a pain in the ass, mainly because I don't own any of the programs at home and I have to stay at the school until closing to get things done, more often than I would like.
During November I was participating in
NaNoWriMo. Unfortunately during this time my grandmother died. My father also started chemotherapy for his cancer because the surgery failed to get rid of all of it.
Just as I was coming to terms with that, I received more bad news. Many of you know that I have had to walk with a brace and cane for the last year. The doctors and I thought that it must have been a lingering injury from a few years ago from when I rammed my knee into a steel wall. However, it turned out that only caused my left knee to deteriorate faster than my right knee (I assumed the minor pain was from overcompensating in my gait). It turned out I have a degenerative knee condition, officially making me handicapped for the rest of my life. Surgery won't do any good, and while the supplements I will have to take twice a day from here on out may help regenerate my knee...the chances are pretty slim.
To put it simply I've been feeling depressed.
I'm currently forcing myself to get back into something of a normal routine by working on a couple of challenge fics which should be out around the end of the month, but it will be a while before I'm regularly writing again. I am trying though. You may only see
OneWord.com entries for a few weeks but it's something.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
