Maybe Someday

The past couple of weekends, I have done the slightest bit of editing work on Miss Masquerade and Dreaming in Shadow. I've been working on these stories for so many years now. These days, I wonder if I have it in me to ever actually do what it would take to finish revising and editing them. Even the smallest things can feel impossible to get up the energy and motivation to accomplish most days.


But today, writing just a few new lines for Jodi... I don't know. I felt something. A small stirring in my chest. Maybe someday, I won't be so exhausted. Maybe someday, I'll be able to dream again.
