Still Going...

 It's been a while since I've updated this old blog and considering I haven't written anything since New Year's Eve, I think I was past due.

I turned 39 recently and for the first time in my life, I'm starting to feel my age. Whereas before when I went to the gym sometimes I would do interval running for up to an hour, now I feel like after ten minutes I'd be broken.

I'm on my feet all day at work, in a warehouse, constantly moving to either pick orders or putting deliveries away. I do have a chair at my desk but that serves as more of a coatrack than anything else.

I still try and make it to the gym twice a week and today even incorporated ten minutes of light cardio in my workout to get a sweat going so I think I'll stick with that.

That's probably going to be a necessity because after nearly 40 years I think my metabolism is finally starting to slow down. Twenty years ago I never thought I'd weigh more than 150lbs but recently I've gotten close to 180. That's always fixed by a quick trip to the bathroom and then it's back to 170lbs.

In terms of my writing, I was starting to feel like I might be heading intro a creative drought. I still keep up with writing one script a month but recently I felt like I couldn't come up with anything. I'd done sci-fi, horror, drama, romantic comedy, crime but over the past few weeks I just kept drawing blanks. I had an idea for July but the problem is always the next month.

As luck would have it I came up with an idea for August's story yesterday while at my new favorite cafe. I can't even remember how it came about-maybe the idea is not to overthink it. Either way, as soon as I finish July's story (Which should be no more than five pages), I'll start on that one.

There's also another comic project that's in the works and has been for well over a year.

But...I'll keep you waiting on that one.
