During the past week, one of life’s hairpin turns mandated I step up my A-game. Catapulted from the comfort zone of my office in the capacity of a writer, I literally hit the road for them thar hills by way of the interstate. Previously avoided due to traffic congestion in the aftermath of a bridge closure and lane conversion, I put my mettle to the pedal behind the wheel.
Piece of cake! Until the eastbound return trip during rush hour which entailed a 30-minute delay.
Not my first A-game rodeo by any means, it just goes to show you what an adrenaline rush under fire can accomplish.
Now, to put my mettle to the pedal in fabricating my next work in progress, put on hold during a crisis that’s stabilized, and a visit from family. I’ve come up with names for the characters who’ve made themselves known and began drafting the prologue (177 words thus far).
*For every strike, may our resilience enable us to get back in the game.My sincere appreciation to you for reading this far.
