If you were to look at my profile page, or somehow saw the stats for how much time I spent on deviantArt it would look like there was something of a pattern. I'll get really into the concept of writing for a week or two, and then I'll lose interest for a while, then come back in to it, maybe for a bit longer, maybe only a couple of days, and then the focus drops.

I don't always stop writing, or at least stop thinking about writing. Since the end of FFM, I've written one piece that I'm in the process of proof-reading before I start trying to submit it to magazines. I've also done a short story for a friend, about half of a screen play, and started formulating the beginnings of a historical novel.

Amid all that, I've started the honours level of my undergraduate degree which is busy enough as it is what with hunting down obscure and expensive set texts and trying to think up a dissertation topic. On top of that, even though I've got another two years before I graduate, I am having to start thinking about the next step. This raises all new questions of money. As I'm entertaining the idea of postgraduate study in a particularly competitive field, there's going to be a lot of costs for me, and relatively low chances of scholarships and funding. Fingers crossed though

So anyway, in a nutshell I am writing, I'm just not posting it on here yet, and it is having to take a backseat sometimes.
