Thanksgiving before Thanksgiving

As I transferred my frozen turkey from the freezer to the fridge, I checked it off on my mental To Do list. That list has occupied prime space in my mind usually reserved for writing.

There’s still some writing going on. I’m still in revisions on my latest project. But the creative flow has slowed down.

But taking a writing break is a good thing. I need to live more life to write about. More family lore to steal and change names. More vacation stories to use as settings for future projects.

So I’m thankful for Thanksgiving and Christmas and New Years.

Hope your holidays are wells of inspiration for you, too.
