So, I have not kept up with my blog as I would have liked. Yes, I've been busy, but that's no excuse. Yes, I recently started a new job (and I wasn't even really looking--funny, I looked for a year and a half, then when I stop, the job finds me!), and I had to prep for and go to two interviews, but that is no excuse either.
I'm a slacker. There. Now you know. (Perhaps this blog should have been titled: This Guy Is a Fritterer ??)
Oh, I work well with deadlines and can do a job well, but for things that don't have to get done...well, they might slide a little.
That is why I have some writing projects that have stalled. I need to get back to them. (I need to take my own advice from my last blog.) I have plenty of projects that are completed (with minor revisions still to come, I'm sure), but I have more that could be finished. Of course, if I actually sold some of my completed projects, that would give me more motivation to finish incomplete projects and less need to tweak those 'completed' projects.
Anyway, it feels good to be working full-time again. It feels good to be writing another blog. Another reason I haven't blogged consistently is that I'm a perfectionist. If I don't think I can do it well, I might just let it slide another week (and another, and another...). Maybe I should be less perfect and more prolific?
Well, keep checking back and see which I am.
Thanks for stopping by.

This is the writing-related blog of Will Orser. He chose TGIF as the title because he likes making up other possibilities of what acronyms could stand for. This Guy Is Funny! Thanks for stopping by. Be sure to check back on Fridays for new posts!

The Guy is Fine
I'm OK. Really. Sorry for not posting for so long.
I've been busy with the non-writing parts of my life lately. Had issues at work. Left my job. Started a business. Trying to get that business off the ground (selling bromeliads - www.bromstoyou.com - however, the website isn't quite live yet). Not much really... ;)
Anyway, I am OK, but I haven't done a whole lot of writing or writing-related activites lately. Once I get into a routine, some things should take care of themselves. So, I should be able to spend more time being a writer. That being said, I received a few rejections in the last couple months and a few non-responses that I think are rejections.
Well, I am hoping to have an interview up here in a few weeks--an interview with a great picture book author. She was busy doing school visits, and I have to get my questions to her, but hopefully, I'll be able to post it this month. I hope you come back for that!
Thanks for stopping by.
