As I said in a previous post, I’m not usually one for talking about my personal life too much, on here or even in general. But since today is #WorldMentalHealthDay, I thought it might be worth my time to reflect a little.
I was originally going to post a piece about my current NaNoWriMo plans, but I’ve had a very discombobulating day so I’m spiking that for now. Instead, I’m going to go on a bit of a ramble/rant.
One thing I’ve discovered (or been reminded of, or something) lately is that I can be capable of some fairly ingenious methods of procrastination when I’m supposed to be writing.
As some of you may already know, I have some issues with self-doubt. It tends to lurk in my head, always there, every day. Some days are easier, others are tough. The tough days are the one where it becomes more and more difficult to ignore that internal voice.
This post was written specifically for the #AuthorToolboxBlogHop
You know what it’s like. You’re sitting there, pen in hand and a blank page in front of you. You have a bunch of ideas in your head but, for whatever reason, you’re just not putting any words together. So you end up staring at your page and going nowhere.
Many of you out there will remember Raimey Gallant as the architect behind last year’s Nano Blog Hop, which put many of its participants (including myself) in touch with each other, either on Twitter, Facebook or through our blogs.
