When You Don't Feel Like Writing

First up, I'd like to thank Write2Live for giving me the Blog on Fire award you can currently see on my sidebar. I'll have to find someone to pass this on to now. :-)

I've been battling with my sinuses all week. I'm hoping it's not a sinus infection. My regular doses of paracetamol and Sudafed have been keeping me functional. I'm just glad I work in an office and can sit down all day.

Have you ever wondered how a full-time writer manages to keep working even when they feel terrible? I know I have. Even with my self-medication this week I've struggled to keep working on The Silent Oath. I did manage to break the 2k mark and I'm just about getting into the swing of chapter 1. I'll see what more I can get done tonight after work. If I can get the first chapter done I'll be very pleased, but I'm a far cry from last year's 2k words a day.

One of my oldest friends is moving to Germany with his girlfriend while she does a PhD there. Tomorrow they're having a going away party. I'll miss them both a lot, so it'll be nice to see them properly before they go. It'd be great if this sinus problem went away by then.
