Fried brains, anyone?

I know, the title isn't very encouraging.

Today's entry really is about writing though.

I have finally gotten the cover on my book Heart-Shaped Bruises.

I have been trying to work on my NaNovel, but I think that my brain juices have done dried up. Seriously. I cannot think of anything to add to the story - the thought of trying to write just exhausts me. But, it has to be done.

I suppose now would be a good time to explain that I have Bipolar and I take meds - but I am sinking - as always happens this time of the year. Everything becomes an effort. Even the things that I ♥ - like writing. The only true 'cure' for this (not that it can actually be cured) is to push myself on, but not to be too hard on myself if I don't accomplish what I set out to do.

Isn't that true of everyone though?

Especially if it's something that you REALLY want to accomplish, need to accomplish - you are going to do all that you can to finish the project - even if you have to take a bunch of breaks and getting done in little increments.
