So it’s been a while since I’ve been online,
especially social media. It’s not something that was foreseen and I had little
control over, even though I wanted to and for that I apologize to my readers,
publishers and friends.
Being diagnosed with an invisible medical issue was
hard enough, but the effects were a bit harder as it was something I was not
prepared for.
Thankfully I have an outstanding doctor who saw straight
into the problem and jumped on it immediately.
I’m still battling with some issues from this
diagnosis, so for now I’ll be keeping what it is to myself. I know thousands of
people out there deal with it on a daily basis and speak of it openly, but I’m
not ready for that and may never be.
Those who read my blog or posts know I don’t usually
post anything that is not ‘author’ related in some sort. I’m a very private
person. Even with my personal accounts where I have only family and friends on,
I don’t post anything to personal.
I do want to say I’ve had the utmost support from my immediate
family, best friend and (day job) boss! Support I never thought I’d have, and
for that I offer the most heartfelt thank you!
My goal this year was to have two completed
manuscripts sent into publishers.
Well I can say that has not happened. I did finish one,
at the beginning of the year when my RWA chapter started our Prod Your Muse
competition for its members.
I can’t guarantee it today, but I’m hoping to have
it sent into one of my publishers before the end of December.
That is my new goal!
I knew I was feeling better when I went and sat in my
writing/reading room (my office J ), just sat
there, dusted a little…OK a lot J, then a few days
later had a plot rumbling through my skull and the very next weekend sat down
and outlined it.
Then this week during my time off for the holiday, I had
another plot rumbling, sat down the day after Thanksgiving and outlined that
one as well. WHAT? You thought I was shopping on black Friday?? You’re crazy
LOL. Only on-line J (I
worked to much retail in my younger years to even want to step foot outside my
house on that nutty day J)
I can’t say I’ll be posting every week or twice a week
(Fun Drink Friday) But I’m going to give it a shot. I want my routine back!
Here’s to routines!! (Coffee mug held high) J
