I am such a hypocrite. I post this lovely meta-comment about how I'm back to writing every night, and to compensate I'm going to cut down the number of words per blog entry to a couple of hundred to keep things manageable.
The next day, no blog entry. The day after that, a 1000-word screed.
I guess this is how writers are, but I thought I was better than that. Sorry, gentle readers. I'll continue to try to do better.
The words of an old hymn I once heard the Blind Boys sing divinely well have haunted me lately.
I'm not what I ought to be,
But I ain't what I used to beAnd I'm getting better all the time
