Spring Break
I can't believe that spring is here. It seems like yesterday I was packing up the Christmas tree and stowing it in the basement. So much activity has taken place these past few months that I am ready for a break. I'm happy to say I've published two more books to Kindle and Create Space. Zanna's Outlaw and Lydia's Gunslinger are now available for purchase. Excerpts can be found on my website: www.julielence.com and on my Amazon page: www.amazon.com/author/julielence
Currently, I'm working on the last installment to the Revolving Point, TX series, Debra's Bandit. For the upcoming week, I'm taking a writing break and turning my attention to spring cleaning and enjoying time with my son. He's promised to help, for a small fee. We'll see. His idea of helping and mine are two different things. Either way, I love opening the windows, listening to the robins chirp and cleaning out the old to make room for the new, and that doesn't necessarily apply to things cluttering up the house.
Physical activity has a way of clearing the clutter from my mind. As I work, new and exciting ideas take shape for future stories or a work in progress. I imagine scenes. I hear dialogue, and I've no doubt the same will happen for Debra's Bandit. A third of the way thru the story, I'm looking forward to what comes next. Debra and Gage are headed for difficult times, and while washing windows and cleaning closets, I'll center on small plot details and jot down notes, and when I return to the keyboard, I'll feel refreshed and excited to dive right back into the action.
Enjoy your spring break. May you I hope you take time to hear the robins sing and admire the flowers blossoming. And I you feel as re-energized as I do when I return to writing.
