"Ghost Writer" by Spedding
Blogging has been getting the better of me for months now. I’m overdue on cutting myself some slack. So I’m going to take a short break; a week, maybe two, during which time I plan to:
Read. For myself, just because I can.
Toy with the idea of writing reviews. I will not put an ounce of pressure on myself to complete even one.
And *deep breath* I’m going to concentrate on my own writing, on one or more of the many stories I’ve been neglectful of because I kept telling myself that I didn’t have the time to dedicate to writing. A handy excuse. And one that was making me miserable. As was the critical part of my nature I gave free reign to. (But now perhaps I’ll finally get around to the companion piece to “Lorelei“; it’s been burning in me for ages now.)
It’s true what they say, be it blog or book, these things don’t write themselves.
Taking time for yourself is very important. You can’t give life your all, if there’s nothing left of you to give
Ummmmm and Lorelei…OMGAMAZING!!!!! More please
Thank you. I’m glad you liked it.
*gets to work on companion piece*
When I didn’t post for a week and then less often that usual after that this month, I lost a couple of followers, but I would do it again. Needed the recharge.
I was worried about that, but, like you said, I really need to take a breath and recharge.
Everyone needs a break from time to time–especially when it comes to blogging. I think that many bloggers feel like they shouldn’t but if we don’t, then we’ll get sick of KEEPING a blog… and that’s no fun
Anyway, enjoy your break and have fun reading for you! (And I have reread Lorelei like three times now. It’s AMAZING.)
Oh, I felt that way for sure. Still kind of do.
But this little break will be for the best, I think. And it’s already slipping by so fast!
You reread it? That made my day. Thank you. *grin*
