The hump (and how to get over it)

There is no explanation as to why I wasn't able to regain my footing immediately upon our return from Memphis.  I felt slightly physically off - not ill - and in something of an emotional vacuum.  No rhyme nor reason for any of it, but I finally leaped completely over the hurdle last night as I sat down to work on the written account of our "pilgrimage" to Memphis.  What had sat untended to beyond one not-very-enthused paragraph became, after 45 minutes, 1062 words.  And that was just the basics.  After a phone conversation with my incredibly supportive editor, I'm focusing on adding those little nuances tonight and then continuing on with the chronicle.

I'm writing this here as I recall a recent posting on this blog about this very topic - getting over a writing block.  And I could not be more relieved and proud to have listened to my own advice and pulled it all together.

Having said that - in a non-bluster filled moment, I hope - I will turn my attentions this weekend to resuming my fitness regimen, doing my routines and chores and then recording "Savannah Sunrise", the now-19 year old instrumental which will serve as the theme music (!) for the soon-to-launch podcast "Aural Assessments", which is a music review-forum that I will be taking part in.  I'm very proud to have been asked to provide the theme; I'm even more pleased that I actually have something at the ready!
