Between one thing and another, I haven't worked on the new book IN TWO WEEKS. Now I find I have laptop fear. Or at least fear of approaching the laptop and staring at the blank Word page and nothing coming out.
Okay, I actually have been thinking about the WIP while I've been up to my eyeballs in other things, so I do have one ... maybe two scenes I could attack today, but what about tomorrow? Sunday? Fuggetaboutit. I'm going to a baby shower in the afternoon. Whenever I have some kind of event on the calendar, I can never seem to fit writing into that day. I know, it's stupid. (Sunday's aren't my most productive day, anyway.)
Next week I really have to catch up, because the week after I have two more "events," plus need to pack for the Malice Domestic conference. Yay! I already have an appointment with my agent, will get to talk to my editor at least three times (in person), and will see all my friends. (Double YAY!) Not forgetting that I get to interact with readers, too.
My nerves are shot just thinking about it all -- but, it's fun excitement, too.
And still ... the WIP is hanging over my head.
So, what's on your agenda for the day?
P.S. I'm over at the Killer Characters blog today, with a post about Bound By Suggestion. Come on over and make a comment (or two!).
Not much except to finish my book, then do some quilting, then some errands and finally relax.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.
Trying to catch up on blogs, reading a new book I've been impatiently waiting for that just arrived, getting the house ready for guests arriving on Monday, and...oh yeah...my WIP just filed criminal neglect charges against me.
ReplyDeleteWell, I've been cheating on my WIP with planning another series. Oh, I told my WIP it didn't mean anything, that I'd be back, that I'd come back with a fresh perspective, but I don't know if poor little WIP believed me.
ReplyDeleteBut Monday, after a week away, I'll be dutifully going back to WIP with new eyes.
And Sundays are the one day I take off from writing.
