Have I really been away this long?

So much for my great blogging idea. Actually, all is not lost since the whole point of starting this blog was to get me past my writer's block. Well, it worked since I am now finally working on that novel that I have wanted to start. It is a painful process but at least I am doing it. I have even signed up for a writer's conference this summer for which I have to submit an excerpt. So I now have a goal to work towards ( and I am SOOOO bad at setting goals...I am more a vision person myself and hate to have to follow through on the mundane details). Now, this has started me thinking that I need to quit my job and move to London for a few months to do research on the parts of my novel that take place there...hmmmm....
