A Most Stubborn Muse

She really is the worst, isn't she? The best as well, which I do not intend on forgetting. The fair Muse has decided that editing is in fact very inspiration. So inspirational, that she is filling my head with ideas for novellas. 

The novella market is growing, so I am happy for any new ideas. I just wish she would have provided these ideas months ago when several publishers has open calls for novellas. Oh well. More will come. 

The "plan" now is to try and split my time between editing and writing. It's worked before, and it shouldn't slow me down at all. I really don't have any hard deadlines at the moment, or any open calls to respond to. Plus, this isn't really straying from the idea of finishing longer works while sending out the already finished shorter ones. 

I will say, that I tend to write better with looming deadlines. It discourages me from slacking off or telling myself it can wait five more minutes...and another five more minutes. I'll have to set up better self imposed deadlines.
