I'm currently working on a story for one of the new Alban Lake Publishing anthologies. I'm about 3/5 of the way, as far as word count goes. I've got my characters well "fleshed-out", so my writing speed should increase.

A flock of russet breasted robins,
Horses standing in the field, one with a coat on,
Black cows, still, like a painted picture.
The constant chatter of small, busy birds.
Nearing the dog park,
Canine friends of every color and size,
Taking their humans for a walk.

Hey everyone. I’m making this kind of in a spur of the moment decision. Probably not the best idea, but I don’t have a lot of people to talk to, honestly.
I’m kind of depressed. I know some of it, maybe a lot of it, has to do with the fact that it’s winter and that tends to trash me. I’ve been tir...

And don’t re-read it until you are done, until the first draft is finished.
