I'm fretting about my passport application. I sent it in on February 28, and their automated reply to my panicked message about when I could expect to get it tells me to phone them 15 days before my flight date...how am I supposed to get my Visa and "letter of invitation" processed without a passport? Why aren't they putting more staff on to process the increased traffic in passport applications?
And today I printed out everything I've written since October. Well, almost everything. I have to work through it all and figure out what I'm going to workshop, and that means working through a few hundred pages of fiction and poetry and essaies and pulling out what needs the most work. Or should I pull out what needs the least work? And, I have to keep writing. Not that I can stop that. Every day I "wake up the writer" and have to keep writing. Amazing. I can see that I shouldn't fight this, because I'm sure there will be times when I am not writing and am grateful for the reams of material that I have to work on. Right now it just feels as if I'm writing "too much" and I feel as if I'm surrounded by piles of raw writing that I will never possibly be able to get to.
