Why I am not currently engaging in "Real Writing"

By rights, I probably shouldn't spend all day scribbling things on a word document to post on a blog. It seems like a dangerous habit to get in to, which is probably why I always talked myself out of blogging to begin with.

I've been meaning to start up writing Dreamwalker's Path, again. After writing 20,000 words in a week, finishing it should be pretty easy, but I've got other ideas floating in my brain pan--mostly short stories. I have the sneaking suspicion that certain people who are waiting for me to finish Dreamwalker would suggest that I should focus on doing some "real" writing (whatever that is), but I'm kind of enjoying not doing that at the moment. I've decided I'm going to be the writer's equivalent of a hobo, at least for a while (and minus the strange smells).

On the business side of things, I have to contact Amazon and ask them how they want their submissions formatted. I'm going to see if I can get some submission guidelines from 47North, Amazon's Scifi/urban fantacy/etc. publisher. I may try them before I self-publish.
