May was the month where I finally made some awesome headway on conquering my fears. Here’s what I did:
~Poetry: Wrote 10 (!!) drafts, edited 2 old drafts, and 3 of the 10 poems written were about a subject I haven’t been able to write about for 5 years. I’d say that’s progress!
~Photography: First shoot done on 5/10. Low light/Church. Beautiful pictures. 😀
~Erotica: I started Awaken Me on 5/4, a novella about cat shifters. Still in progress.
~Self-portraits: Been taking them hit and miss. Still nothing artsy, but I have been keeping my eye out for something cool to wear that won’t break the bank.
~Revision: Restarting Grave Touched today or tomorrow.
~New project: Although it’s not technically part of my Year of No Fear, I did start a new novel called Soulfire. It has a cool concept. Usually, I’d wait till I finished something, but I feared (!!) the enthusiasm and ideas would just vanish. Or it would take over and I’d mess up my deadlines. Well, no. I decided to start on it anyway and work on it when I could. I am trusting that I can do this without screwing things up.
So I’m pretty happy with what I’ve done so far. Here’s to much more!
You definitely stepped out in a big way! (I have a cat-shifting culture too!).
Awesome! =D
Thanks, Shan! I’m very happy with my progress. Cat shifters rule. 😉
