I am editing another chapter drawn on trauma I endured –
and just ate too much chocolate to get through it. I want my books to always be deep, real, honest, and in the end, healing…. And this manuscript – it has so much of my trauma and healing in it.
I don’t usually eat while I edit or write – but sometimes I just need that extra push to get through… I did not take a pic of all the chocolate wrappers. Heh. I also used other techniques to get through – getting up and doing a menial task for a few minutes while my brain and heart worked through what I needed to, and moments of positive distraction. After I finish this chapter I’m taking a break.
I so hope this book will speak to others and help them. #amwriting #amediting
