I can tell I’m in between projects. I know what I want to do next, but it hasn’t grabbed me, capturing my whole attention.
In-Between often turns into days of despair. It’s those days when you jump at every phone call, hoping it’s an editor and when it isn’t, your despair deepens. It’s those days when you read drafts and wonder what idiot wrote that. It’s those days when even the coffee is bitter.
These days when I feel like this, I’m calmer. I know it will cycle around and I’ll be deep into a project soon. I take the day to play. This weekend, my son will play football in his school’s Homecoming Game, then has a date with a really cute girl for the Homecoming Banquet. And the University of Arkansas Razorbacks are playing in town and we’re meeting friends to tailgate and then go Call those Hogs.
That’s enough to pull anyone out of a funk!
