I don't feel quite myself lately.
It's nothing too strange actually. The
fact is and I have known this for some time now - I really don't like this time
of year. Each year from the end of October, until Yule I'm...
Well, I can't say I'm depressed. But I'm moody
and bitchy and all that is due to the fact, that I go to work in the dark and basically I come home in the dark. Only seeing the light of day and if
lucky, the sun, through the windows of my office...
I have just put aside my current WIP.
Around 33K words. It just didn't feel right. No wonder actually. The moody me
changed the plot the actual me doesn't like it.
Knowing that there is still 5 weeks to go
till Yule when the sun is finally coming back (a figure of speech) and the days
are going to get longer and my mood better, I have barely touched the keyboard
on my computer. I thought it was a waste of time.
But then, two things happened.
First I found this 4 stars rating for CaughtBetween Two Worlds on Goodreads.
And afterwards, I found this lovely review
– Blue Bookworm
– on Readers Review Room for my first novel All That the Heart Desires.
You can imagine; my mood improved
significantly.
Blank page... here I come.
How absolutely wonderful to receive more good reviews June, very well done and deserved, I wish more people would read these two fabulous books.
