Had to set my comment moderation to "Always" because someone's spamming my blog. Anyone have tricks for screening this nonsense?

There are sooooo many different writing software choices these days, especially with the addition of iPad versions or iPad apps that you can add to your writing workflow (INDEX CARD is my favorite!). It's easy to get bogged down in the hows and never get any actual writing done.

A lot has happened since I last posted anything on this blog. The biggest impact: my mother was diagnosed with cancer around the time of my previous post. I moved home to take care of her a few weeks before she passed away this past December. I wish I could update this blog with all of the things I've been working on, but the truth is that the creative wellspring has been pretty dry. I've wondered if perhaps it is because I don't have that many life experiences to draw upon-- I haven't traveled much or extended myself often to do things that forced me to step out of my everyday existence. I've even wondered if the truth is that I don't really have anything to write. Perhaps I'm more of an editor, a thorough reviewer, since I seem to still be competent at that end of things. I'm not ready to give up just yet, but I find myself getting disheartened by all of the successful writing around me, and that's just not a good sign.
