Mist and Shadows

Well, I’m back, as Sam states at the end of the Lord of the Rings.  It was a bit of an adventure, except for, eg, ringwraiths, magic rings, elves and what not.

Would like to get back into the writing, given the complete lack of it this last week, but the next 2-3 days promise to be still just as busy.

It wasn’t a complete loss writing wise.  Though I got nothing done on Winter Wolves, something odd did happen.  It is a bit over three hours driving to my parents, though this time it took slightly longer.  There I was, driving along, mulling over things and unbidden a short story popped into my mind.  It was an non-serious Sci-Fi with a fair bit of dry sarcasm tossed in, not my staple fare.  I still have no idea where it came from.  The drive took a bit longer than normal as I stopped a few times to make notes – I had a couple of notebooks with me just in case.  All up made around three and a half pages of A4 notes.  Just need some time to sit down and write it up properly.

There were some other thoughts that came during the drive, but they will require a seperate post me thinks.
