Where's Pam Been?

So where, you might ask, has Pam been?  Um, mostly, here and home, just busy breaking every resolution I've made for the year.  Except I have been subbing.  I kinda-sorta joined the Write 1 Sub 1 Challenge, except I'm pretty much doing it just privately.  But I have been flashing (writing a story in a timed 90 minute themed challenge) every week at Liberty Hall and subbing a story a week.  The bad thing is that I haven't been doing any other writing besides that one day a week.  I keep meaning to.  But I don't.  No excuses, I just don't. 

2012 was going to be the year of the novel for me.  I signed up for the Codex novel challenge.  Except I've let the April starting date slide right past with nary a grab.  Just can't work up the gumption.  Probably what I'll end up doing is panicking when it starts getting closer to closing time and try to do it all in a month.  I guess I work better with a deadline, too, and it has to be close enough that I can't procrastinate about it. 

I did work yesterday, though, because I do have a deadline coming up:  Polish Challenge at Liberty Hall.  So I trotted out a few of my older flashes that I always meant to finish and never got around to.  One is spiffed up and I've got 2 more to do.  Since they're short, I plan to enter 2 of them, and they'll still be less than 4k, so that seems fair.  Can't decide which of the others ones to put up though.  Probably the one I finish first.  The other one will have to wait or go somewhere else -- maybe Codex, I keep meaning to put one up for critting there, but the truth is, I'm kind of scared to.  There, now since I admitted it, I can put on my big girl pants and do it. 

I really *do* mean to post more often.  But, you know.  I just don't.  Because I'm a procrastinator and there's always tomorrow to do it in -- until Dec. 21, that is.  ;-D
