What do you think about every day? Is it what you are going to write or how you are going to promote you work?
So what is it going to be today? Let’s see, should I try to write more of that novel I was working on…no, what about that children’s book sitting in the corner that calls to me often? No, no. I really should be sending out more press kits to promote my new book. But what the heck, no one has responded to the ones I have sent out so far so I have been feeling like a fool. I ask my self why I do the things I do, but I never get a complete answer.
Life is rough in the writing world especially if you have another job that at least puts the bread on the table. I have been writing for many years and have earned not so much from my writing, but that doesn’t make me want to quit. Writing is my world. I even keep a lap top computer next to my bed because there are nights when I either can’t sleep or I am having a brain storm. I need to make sure all my thoughts get down.
