I saw one of the IWSG posts there – thanks!
Alex–Another great post from IWSG. :)
Elizabeth – As always, I’m grateful for these terrific links. Interesting that several of them mention getting re-charged to write and finding ways (whether it’s taking a break or something else) to come back to it with energy. I think that’s important, and I think you can always tell when an author isn’t enthused…
Margot–Exactly….when an author is just going through the motions, it’s never a good thing. Hope you have a great week!
Thanks, Elizabeth! I also find it interesting that there area recharge posts out there. I’ve just come back to writing after stepping away for about a month. I was just absolutely lost with the current wip. But I’m back at it and plotting the next one. These are such great resources!
Julie–I think burn-out is a lot more common these days with everyone really cranking up their writing schedule. Glad you took a break! Promo can take it out of us and I know you recently had a release.
Thanks for the shout out, Elizabeth! :)
You’re so welcome, Shay! Thanks for coming by.
