Procrastinating my way to becoming a best selling author ✍🏻

Welcome to the chaos of my inner thoughts while attempting to write… it’s a scary place.
Being a dog mom is the most amazing thing. Jasper is asleep at and wagging his tail as he dreams. My heart is melting 💗

It is so much harder to write when you know there are only about 3 to 4 critical scenes left.

Sometimes my boyfriend and I like to send each other house listings out of our price range and extremely far from our jobs… it’s extremely depressing. Do not recommend.

Gloomy weather = best time to write!

I know it’s still there and I have some channels I watch regularly or try to but man I miss the old #booktube days!

A non word count related goal for this week is to learn more about using Canva! Anyone have any useful resources? I’m hoping there will be some YouTube videos.

Testing this out! I normally struggle reading craft books cause I’m such fiction reader. I’m hoping this will help me with my upcoming revisions though!

What are some of your favorite craft books?!

How in the hell did I end up with having a goal of my manuscript being ready for query and buying my first house by the end of 2025?!

Been weirdly making good progress on my WIP. I may actually be taking this seriously this time. #WritingCommunity

Look! Look! I hit 60k!

This is a huge accomplishment. My first two manuscripts barely hit 30k. I’ve definitely grown while writing this.

I got out 1500 words today and went to the gym! Talk about a motivational high

Just the idea of wanting to be a published writer has been extremely stressful as of late. Imposter syndrome has been real!

Is dancing at my desk while I write procrastinating or multitasking?

My characters need to have a complicated conversation that I have no idea how to write but tonight is the night I get past it and keep moving forward.

Question: Is there a BookCon like event that has replaced the original?

My first year going was going to be 2020 and it was obviously cancelled but then also cancelled for good.

For my authors who work a full time job… when you feel motivated to work on your manuscript while at work how do you keep that motivation with you till you are actually able to write?

On tonight's procrastination agenda I am working on finishing the first draft of my current manuscript while the back of my mind is excited about the new horror idea I have. #booksky #writingcommunity #horrorfiction #newadultfiction #collegeromance
