A Writer’s Attention Span

It goes without saying that now is a stressful time for everyone. And with that stress many things can bubble to the surface including a shortened attention span. I am definitely a victim of that and have a tendency right now to jump from one thing to another.

That’s a good and bad thing for me. Bad, because I need to be able to concentrate on writing my current story. But good too, because one of the other aspects of writing seems to be flowing well for me right now – brainstorming.

Brainstorming is coming up with concepts, characters, plot, even series ideas. And over the past week I have come up with not one, but two series ideas. Now, don’t get too excited yet. Ideas are just that…ideas. But my brain is ripe for new ideas right now since it is fighting me on the actual writing of my last paranormal wedding planner book. No worries, I WILL get that book written and out there.

But I also know that I need to take advantage of what my brain is giving me right now – ideas for a possible new world that I could create and share with you.

We’ll see what happens.

In the meantime, please stay safe and healthy!
