What comes next ...?
This last month has been very busy. Not just as an author, but being a Mum takes up a lot of time and away from writing. Now Megan is back in school and I find myself staring at the screen unable to get back into the rhythm of writing!
Anyone else get this?
Having had some great news this last month - Adventures of Faerie folk was awarded an Honourable Mention in the Amsterdam book festival in the Children's section and Freya's Child has been taken on by Crimson Cloak publishing - all great right?!! But losing focus is happening to me which is weird. For everyone who knows me will tell you I am the most focused and motivated woman on this planet!! Yet I find my mind wandering and looking at silly cute pictures on Facebook and daydreaming. It stems from a lack of structure I think. The spa I worked part-time had to close and although it felt like the right thing to do I am still waiting for that reason to happen!
Perhaps I am looking at this all wrong? Perhaps now that I have the extra time to finish my third novel and work on the second collection of faeries I am feeling a lack of motivation. What is it that I am waiting for? A big win perhaps? Aren't the awards achieved already not enough? NO! I want more because I know I can achieve more and yet ... I feel as if I am on the precipice of something as all the signs show me 'abundance' so what am I waiting for? What is my fear? Change? I welcome positive change. Disappointment? It won't be as dramatic as I'd like?
I have this recurring dream that I am sitting in this posh hotel in the bar and have ordered a coffee and a large whiskey - Glenmorangie and I am looking out of the window and gazing out into the night of this city - not sure where, but in that very moment in the semi darkness of this bar I know that I have made it and feel an overwhelming sense of achievement and pride. I look forward to that drink one day
Blessings as always
