Time to focus

It's been a real test for me in the writing world. As many of my followers know, I am currently pursuing my Doctorate in Education. I had to take some time off of my fiction writing and spend some time working on my Dissertation. I feel like I had to channel all my power as a Gemini to complete my work.

Writing a Dissertation is completely different than writing fiction. Yes, all writing has many of the same characteristics. Writing needs to be organized, well-developed and honest. Although i had to put my fiction on hold, I didn't really take a break. I still wrote almost everyday. I love writing, no matter the form. I just love the dance of words across my fingers as I write.

Giving my brain a break from fiction writing has an added boon. I have been able to solidify some plot lines in the next few books in my mind. I know where the story is headed, but I need to draw the roadmap to get there.

I am looking forward to getting back to the Haven Series. I have some plans for Savanna's descendants and am looking forward to sharing their life's stories with my reader's. I'm sorry I haven't been able to spend as much time with her family as I would have liked.

No matter what I focus on, I know the story is in me and I will be putting pen to paper (or fingers to keyboard as it is now my preferred method of writing) and the story will soon be keeping me up late and creating more havoc in my marriage.
