The quiet days of summer…

Hello, Write Edge readers. For those of you in the Northern Hemisphere, I hope the summer vacation is one full of good memories, lots of hydration, and fun adventures (no matter what form they take.) We got our travel out of the way early in the summer, which means we’re spending our time enjoying the lovely Central Illinois weather and I get a regular schedule for writing, editing, and more.

I’m working on a new book, so having a routine every day is incredibly conducive to regular writing. Don’t get me wrong, I love a travel adventure as much as the next person. They’re absolutely perfect for catching up on reading. Writing, however, becomes a little more of a challenge, so that’s why I don’t mind being at home for the summer so much.

It’s Monday, which means my latest haiku in my #yearlonghaikuproject. I’ve come to appreciate this concise poetry form so much in these last several weeks. It’s a challenge but a fun one, and I think doing something so far out of my normal scope of writing makes me a better scribe all the way around. Check out my new poetry now on The Write Edge Writing Workshop.

Last week I shared in my #bookreviewpreview what I’m reading for this Wednesday. In the middle of the week, you’ll get to see what I thought of Lenny Marks Gets Away With Murder by Kerryn Mayne. Find that review on The Write Edge Bookshelf on Wednesday.

Finally, it’s back to Instagram on Friday. Want to know what I’m up to my in writing and non-writing lives? Check out previous posts with my handle, @EktaRGarg, or by going to my Facebook author page.

Thank you for your continued support and confidence in me, readers. It makes posting every week such a pleasure and a privilege. For that, if nothing else, don’t forget to tell a loved one you care about them. Life is too short not to.

Have a great week,

E.R.G.
