That’s very true. Thanks for the reminder. I’ve gotten sidetracked with querying the finished book (which is where the marketing plan comes in), and it’s taken me off my writing game. Back to it this week.

And write consistently. Nothing else (e.g. the marketing plan, blogging, tweeting) really matters. You can’t market a book you don’t have. You can’t tweet a book you don’t have.

Even if you can only get 250 a words down a day (basically 1 page), if you do it for 250 days (meaning you still ignore almost 1/3 of a year from writing) you will have a nice sized book. And that time is going to pass whether you write or not. Whether you complain or not. So just write.

But let’s try and pull it together and get back on that saddle lol
Nice going with one of the e-publishers. Hope everything goes well there 😉
Have a nice week!

I think that’s been the most frustrating thing. I felt so powerless and couldn’t figure out why. Nothing I tried worked, but I will say the past couple of days have been better. I think getting back to my regular schedule with child care, despite the early hour, has actually helped my focus.

Thank you so much for the encouragement. And you’re welcome. Lolcats are awesome, and I use them way too much. Good luck this week!

I hate those down swings where the motivation just seems to dissipate and it feels like there’s nothing you can do to get back in the upswing. There always is an upswing, though, thankfully, and I hope on Wednesday, I come around to a check-in talking about how you’ve really been feeling it, Stacy. : ) You’ve definitely got a lot of great projects going that have the potential, that’s for sure.

Congratulations on the award! I hope your week is awesome and must thank you from the bottom of my heart for starting with a lolcat. Anything starting with a lolcat is a good start indeed.

You’re very welcome – you deserve it:)

The marketing plan is ready to go, I think. And yes, I had several people helping out with ideas and resources. The power of the Internet is a wonderful thing.

Thanks so much for the kind words and encouragement:)

Thank you. You’re right. I need to just relax and let things happen. Stress is just making things worse, too. Appreciate the encouragement!

Thanks so much! I hope you enjoy the blog and links. Sorry to hear you’re not feeling well – it’s a terrible time of year to be sick. Feel better soon!

Sooo kind and I am honored to be included in the group. MUAH!!!

Great work towards your marketing plan. That’s so exciting. I saw you tweet about it and I had hope there were people with some ideas to give you a good jumping off point. You’ll be a marketing master in no time!

I can’t imagine how rough it is with everything with your brother going on. Your courage and strength is amazing. Hang in there darlin’! You are doing great!!!
