Keeping Busy, an #IWSG Post

I'm taking a break from the Real or Fictional posts I've been sharing for ISWG. I'll share the last post in that series next week. For now, kick up your feet and follow Insecure Writer's Support Group as we share our thoughts, insecurities, and encouraging words. Thanks to Alex and our co-hosts for keeping IWSG going.



I think April showers have moved to May. At least in the northwest. But that's okay, because Mother Nature helped water my new planters and other plants. I actually look forward to this time of year, because I do some of my best plotting while doing yard work. 

Okay, sharing pictures isn't part of IWSG, but since these planters helped me figure out which novel to work on next and they brighten up the post, I'm including them.

As far as insecurities, they are there. I have a newly released book to continue marketing, one my agent is subbing, one she's reading, my standalone novel that needs some love, the list goes on. But things outside of writing have kept me too busy (slightly stressed) to worry about those things. My agent did give me a heads up that she enjoyed my new novel, which has helped as well. I've said it before, but I'll say it again, keeping busy is one of the best way to keep you from dwelling on the things your insecure about.


One more planter before I go. I named the dragon in this one Puff after one of my favorite dragons in a children's story. Anyone know which movie I'm talking about?

Did you get a ton of rain last month? Are you keeping busy? How's your writing coming? Any insecurities?
