I realized a while back that I have this blog categorized in my head as my "fiction writing blog", so if I'm not writing fiction, I tend to not post here.  Then I decided the other day that this needs to be my "writing" blog and to not limit myself to "fiction". 

Meaning that I should start talking about what's kept me up day and night, and prevented me from doing many, many of the things I should have been doing.

So, where have I been for the last six months, and what have I been doing?

I've been writing a non-fiction book:

Is that enough to account for the majority of the last six months?  175,000 words.  500 pages.

I'm glad to have it this far done, but it's only a raw draft.  Now the chore is to make something coherent of it.  Which, of course, should prove as interesting (in the Oriental curse sense of the word) as any fiction I've written.

It'll eventually be a book on how to take control of your life from your subconscious and your limiting beliefs.  It won't be a cure-all or make-a-million-dollars-this-week book.  For anyone who actually does the exercises, when they're done with the book, they will be consciously running their life, which makes it tremendously more likely that their conscious goals will actually be realized... whether it be a cure or a million dollars, or just plain being able to say "I want to do X" and not have their subconscious sabotage them every step of the way.  :-)
