Small Victories

Finished a story, the first thing in several months. The ending is broken, but I've done all I can with it at this point; it's for a workshop, and I don't think I can make it any prettier in the next ten days.
I need to start something new, but 1. the short story idea I'm thinking about is very conceptual and I have no entry point into it yet and 2. I want to read at least one more book and wait until after the workshop to start the next novel. There will be a lot more research on the novel as it is being written, but I think I need to start it so as not to be using "More research!" as an excuse not to. I am looking at this novel as something I am not sure I am good enough to write, which is both good and bad.
Perhaps I will use this limbo-time to noodle around with some comics scripts, as I am not happy with what I've been able to come up with in that department. Or perhaps I will just take a lot of naps.
