Surprise! I took a break and I'm back.

I always make a vow to do a better job with keeping up with things like this blog. It only takes a few minutes to jot down my thoughts throughout the day and it certainly isn't painful to sit and write for 20 minutes or so, every so often. Yet, I still get caught up in the day to day and forget, or let myself slack because I can't string my thoughts together. In my defense, since my accident last summer I have had problems with focusing my thoughts and capturing what I want to say in a neat and orderly fashion. It can be frustrating and it makes it easier to just cop out and not try.

I am in a position now where I need to write and can no longer let myself off of the hook. Deadlines are looming and I'm also starting a new blog with a good friend of mine and will need to write for that as well. Currently, I'm pondering what to write about for my next zine. The Portland Zine Symposium is coming up and I need to start working on it now, to avoid the last-minute panic. I also will be giving updates on my months as a vegan, which is still an on-going lifestyle for me. Until then... :)
