I've been kind of MIA lately. I have dropped so many balls in the last three months that I have lost count. I have failed.
It is really hard for me to say that. I am accustomed to not meeting my own expectations and having to adjust goals but I straight up failed this fall.
And it sucks.
But I am slowly trying to make the changes I need to in order to recover but it is hard. Adulting is hard. Life is hard. Writing this is hard.
I told Twitter a few days ago that I am not okay and I meant it. I am struggling with my day job and balancing my other commitments. It is even making my excitement about performing in Nutcracker stressful instead of the best thing ever.
My word of 2016 was BALANCE and I sucked at it.
So I'm struggling but you know what helps? Writing.
I don't have time to sit down and really work on any of my book ideas/outlines/WIPs but I do occasionally have a few spare moments to let the words flow a little and it really helps. I'm going to start sharing those words here. I'll probably come up with some snazzy hashtag and compile them on their own page. I haven't figured that bit out yet.
Now, more than ever, I would love to hear how things are going for you. Personally, professionally, bookishly. Share with me.
Hey, I just wanted to say that I'm so sorry so many things have been stressful for you lately. I don't know the full extent of it, so this might be easy for me to say, but I believe you'll get back to your fighting state. I know that sometimes that's especially hard to do when you've disappointed yourself, but you'll make it eventually <3
