Ok! I’ve been MIA because life. But I’m currently editing my interview with @CaroLoganBooks and I’m amped up to write more fight scenes. This has been ages coming!! Ahhh. #thewritingapothecarypodcast

I was also going to try and read but the scrolling here while laying down is not good…

I’ve also almost set on a release date for my novel!! I just need to pull myself out of the procrastination station.

I am so inconsistent because I’m such a TT doom scroller and a procrastinator, BUT I have 50 pages of proof edits to go and then I have to fix the second part of my middle because one of my beta readers made some great points about that part.

I think I have finally also decided on a release date. But I’m just fine tuning some of details before I confirm. But I feel good about it…if I can pull it all together.

I love editors. So so much. I’m so grateful for their keen eye. But my proof editor made my job harder by changing one thing over and over again. And it’s not an easy fix. Ffffff.

Proof edits are tedious!! But let’s do this!! I need to finish them this weekend. I’ve procrastinated enough!

Editing is such a hard part of the writing process. I’m still at proof reading edits and I’m procrastinating because the next step is printing out the manuscript to read it all. And then start the typesetting.

Has anyone used @ScrivenerApp to publish their manuscript (as in a physical print copy?)

I’m up to my last edits on my novel. And I can’t bring myself to finish them!! Whyyyyy? Proof edits are by far the easiest part of the whole process and I’m stuck procrastination mode.

It’s also Greek Easter tomorrow so I’ve prepped all of the meat, made the tzatziki and baked. Debating doing another batch of kourambiethes so I can speed the love around at work…

Also tomorrow's plan is to record podcasts. If I can do that I'll start to get back on track and maybe bring back weekly podcast, but I'll stick with bi-weekly. I got so burnt out. But I just realised that as a a plus I have the next two guest episodes already recorded...

Got sick ugh, but on a plus of not going to work today i managed to go through about 20 pages of proof reading edits, wrote my potential blurb and become re-obsessed with Bad Omens's acapella album after rehearing it on the clock app...

Also my favourite songs on the album: The Death of Peace of Mind, The Grey, Miracle, Just Pretend. In that order (Miracle final mastered version is brilliant to jam in the car, that bass).
