We’re back! Hope you had glorious holidays and are ready to start the new year! Thanks for joining us! It really means so much!
Here is this week’s challenge:
Did you make a New Year’s Resolution? Have you stuck to it so far?
2022 was a very difficult year for many of us, me included. I have to admit I was demoralized for a while and basically stopped writing. Which was not the best solution. Writing is wonderful and takes me to places I can’t go any other way. I can create realities and people and experience so many different things. It makes me realize there’s a big world out there, filled with all kinds of personalities and situations and it lifts me out of the small world we can all shrink into.
So I have put my butt back in the chair and started back working on books Number Seventeen and Eighteen. Yes, I tend to write two simultaneously. They are both romance, but different genres, and so easy to keep them separate. One is time travel to 1562 Scotland – so fun. And the other is a sequel to “Murder Most Notorious”: different crimes, same detectives.
Instead of dwelling on my own problems, I can focus on the characters’. And plots and resolutions. So much more interesting and entertaining.
So, my resolution is to keep writing every day, even if it’s only a few words. And so far, I have stuck to it and I am so much happier.
Now let’s hop over to the fabulous Jenna Da Sie and hear about her resolutions…
