On The Road To Recovery?

The end for some of my projects is in sight. Hopefully, I'll get a rough draft of an image out the door in the next two days or so, and then I'll get two others finalized. That will clear the graphics work off my plate. Then I can get back to the writing.

I started shooting for 200 words a day on the new novel, and proofing 10 pages a day on the galley of the novel that's waiting to be published. I'm not even hitting those goals everyday, so it's going slowly, but at least it's going.

I look back on the last few months and I realized that I've been steam-rolled by all this work. It's great that I've got so much stuff going on, but it sucks because I'm struggling to get stuff done and still take care of my family. And somewhere in there, I'm supposed to take care of me. Not easy to do these days.

What's really bad is all this work and stress and lack of sleep has just about killed my sex life. Michael is out of town a lot these days, and when he's home, it's all we can do to stay awake long enough to get the kids in bed before we collapse ourselves.

I'd like to re-start my sex, you know? Call me crazy, but I think an erotica writer should have a sex life. I can remember a time when I'd get up early in the mornings to write something really nasty, and then I'd crawl back into bed with my husband for an early morning wake up call. That hasn't happened though since our second child was born. I wonder why? I wonder if I could change that? I wonder what it would take.

Hmmm...
