The Write Life

Seducing hearts, one story at a time, Author - Crystal R. Martin

 

Hi All,

 

                Is Mercury Retrograde being kind to you? This is a surprise to me as well. This cycle has been rather weird. I am much more self-aware this round. I am experiencing two things. One, the types of things that trigger me, and two not falling into the trap of spiraling, rather, I am just letting those feelings/emotions go.

 

                In my last update I forgot to mention that I finally succeeded in making sour dough successfully. It was very tasty. I also made apple butter and blackberry freezer jam this year, for the first time. Yummy doesn’t do it justice. My plate was filled by all things made by these two hands. Joy abounds. (Yes, it still feels selfish but also it feels revolutionary. They want us upset and angry, so joy is resistance!)

 

                In other news I was recently able to travel to see family. We relaxed and just enjoyed the company. It soothed my soul in the best way. My Sagittarius moon loves to travel. Thanksgiving is just over a week away. Where has this year gone?

 

                In writing news, I’ve had a brilliant flash. I haven’t been writing because of the block. I realized I should write a Christmas story, just to break through the block. A fan-fiction rom-com to return to my roots. Wish me luck. I am excited to say the least.

 

                I have a lot on my plate, but with some good planning, I should be able to read, write, and work.  Let’s hope… As always, I love you all. Keep reading, writing or whatever you do passionately.

Mercury Retrograde, Say What?
