I would like to get back to writing, but that terrible thing Real Life has been acting up. My mom's been super sick and still recovering from her burn, I am not 100% well myself although I might be better off than my mom because I got the flu shot, plus the usual list of stresses that seem to be doing their best to keep me in a funk.
To top things off, I've been super dysphoric lately, and so that's not conductive to the kind of mental state I like to try and write stories in, and it isnt helped by the fact I'm seriously stumped when it comes to Branded, MYTH, and "By the Rivers of Babylon".
Fortunately, its not all bad, as Jaci has been her usual silly self, and Arwen, Talia, and the rest of the crew on the chat site have also done their part in trying to keep some smiles (and possibly the occasional giggle, though I refuse to confirm that) coming from my end, and a new Pathfinder Trio story is flowing, although slowly.
Ah, well.

When in a slump...
Sad to hear that you (or your mother) aren't well yet.
Don't push yourself too hard, okay?
If you have a hard time working on a serial then maybe a break will do you good.
I usually write short misc stories of random nature. Just to clear my head.
Not all find their way online. But if you want to see an example then look for example at my "story" named "[Paid Ad] BetterU Incorporated". Something silly and hardly a whole story.
Recently I doodled together a little story about the unfortunate shop clerk working in an alchemical workshop who has to deal with angry customers. Every potion has the side effect of bending genders, except for the gender-bending potion. That one doesn't work.
Try to have fun with it and maybe your mood will improve so you can work on your serials again.
Hope you get better,
Cassy
