Sometimes I feel like the well is just dry. Dessicated. A desert inside my soul.<\/p>\n
Such was the case at the beginning of February. I’d written almost 100K words over the past 9 months, and it was just–I was empty.<\/p>\n
Enter: the ANWA Conference bookstore. There I purchased about 10 books written by lovely and talented women I am so honored to associate with. When I got home from that, I started plowing through those books and read them like a bandit. Each one of them made me think, wow, I love this, and oh, isn’t she talented, and wow, what a great concept!<\/p>\n
Each book restored my spirit and bit by bit my reservoir was filled. Now, I feel pretty much ready to get back to work, and I have an idea that will probably be pretty good for the Legally in Love Series. I hope. See? Almost there, confidence-wise.<\/p>\n
Sometimes I have\u00a0writing friends mention they’re in a slump, can’t get that old magic going. My advice? Get a pile of lovely books and read for a\u00a0 few days (or weeks, as the case may require). Hitting the books always helps me.<\/p>\n
Big thank you to the great, talented women I love. You make my life happier and better.<\/p>\n\n
