I’m in Jordan!

…and not writing a whole lot.

I still haven’t figured out how things are going to work exactly, so I haven’t set any new goals yet for my writing.  Probably I’m just going to end up writing 1,000 words a week, but I didn’t do too much last week because we were moving around so much.

Last week we all went to Cairo and toured tons of sites in Egypt.  It was way cool!  You can check out my other blog for the details on that.  Tons of interesting sights, interesting experiences, etc.

I did write a little bit–started out with a new beginning to The Wormhole Paradigm (I’m definitely going to change the title for that one), and just thinking about how I’m going to write it.  I’ve got a better handle on the plot now, thrown out one of my babies that led me to start the story, etc.

That’s probably the story I’m going to work on the most while I’m here.  But honestly, I won’t have much time to do it.  I left the responsibility of organizing online meetings for the Quark writing group with Travis, and I hope that that goes well.  It seems to be working really well, because they’ve already had a meeting and they’ll be having a lot more.  I’ll try to participate through the livejournal accounts, but I can’t make any guarantees.

More updates to come when things settle down a bit here (which might take a while…)
