I haven't been really active on DA these past few weeks. I have been busy with summer school and doing things with my family and friends and church and such.

mostly summer school.

I've been on DA long enough and have enough conections here that even if I post nothing and reply to nothing I still continually get comments and favs and replies from old comments. I have been reading them all, glancing at all the visual deviations, and glancing at the journal topics.

I've been replying rarelynot having the time and energy to formulate verbal responses, but I do still enjoy looking at your art, journals and comments


I'm doing good right now
I'm building foundations and staying positive.
when I return to full participation here, I'll be better than I was before. more organized, more confident, happier and more positive.

I'm going to try to participate in Flash Fiction Month in July. it's like NaPo, only short stories, one per day rather than poems. I may not post them, because I expect them to be really bad, but I might suprize myself. as with NaPo, the deal will be that as liong as I am doing FFM, I will not spend any time writing on Destiny of dreams. that way the FFM does not take time away from other things and I am forced to take a healthy break away from writing on Destiny of Dreams, which is an endless ongoing project that will never be finished.

I was going to put up a journal also about Flash Fiction Month, inviting those of you who enjoy writing to also try this chalenge. or at least encourage others who are doing it. the DA account for it is *Flash-Fic-Month and there are lots of prompts and suggestions and instructions and iother good stuff to help you participate. there's even a chatroom where you can ask for critiques or suggestions or whatever, so look it over and consider giving it a try if you like writing short fiction.
