I've lost motivation to the point that I almost considered quitting writing, Carmellita. I'm not going to but I got really close. Life just keeps throwing me things I'm trying to manage and sometimes that's more important to me than getting a story out these days. Wow, I'm sorry you didn't get to complete your challenge but I'm glad that they could fix the damage done. I am trying to get myself back on track to write again and I'm going riskier and edgier again to get me going. That's how I'm coping with not finishing (continuing) my writing consistently.
