Fingers Crossed…

When I woke up this morning, I didn’t feel that well and wasn’t looking forward to another long day of depression and struggle.

These days, my determination has to be hiding behind the door, for I have not seen hide nor hair of it in weeks. Almost everything has been bumped, placed on hold until a minor miracle in the head department occurs.

I have been looking at the current work in progress, more because I feel so guilty if I don’t. It was while I was browsing online that I came across an article on marketing.

As I read it, it was like a rocket going off, igniting my enthusiasm at last. I spent the rest of the day catching up on everything: books, reviews, and research. One thing shone brighter than all the rest, though: we need a newsletter! We had one before my collapse, but it was very complicated, and I gave up on it. 

I hope this long-awaited surge of determination will last long enough for me to get somewhere, but I am more than grateful for its arrival. (and if my muse is out there reading this, it could be time you showed up too!)

I may not have enough time to do everything that I want to do, but I have my fingers crossed…

    I’m glad you have found something to focus your determination. Please remind me about your latest book. It wasn’t available when I originally looked and you haven’t mentioned it again.

      We have withdrawn that book, Robbie. To be released later this year. Thanks for asking!
