memoir monday newsletter

Great to see "Cutting Edge" featured in the online roundup of essays in the weekly newsletter "Memoir Monday." I used to read every single essay every week, but they feature 10+ longform essays, and I have tons of reading for CRAFT as it is, so lately I browse and read just a few. 

Feeling very unproductive lately, not writing for days at a time, making very little progress on The Lunatics' Ball, also stuck on a flash fiction that I have worked to death but need to finish for a deadline by the end of December at the very latest. Too many cooks. I've submitted it to my online flash group, to my San Francisco group, to a virtual friend who's an excellent flash writer, to my San Francisco group again. Everyone seems to have different ideas and only now have I really defined my character's feelings. Which still doesn't hand me the great ending I want for the flash. Maybe I should write a brand new one, but I'm not feeling inspired at all.
