I have lost it. Well, I lost some motivation, and that’s funny.
To be completely honest, I began to film an episode for Red Ink in which I discuss the values of self publishing and how that can help build your credibility with agents and publishers. However, it sucked.
I hated it, and my biggest and best critic basically told me to set it aside and start over.
I am very behind on creating content, and so I have fallen into a rut of procrastinating my content creation until the very last second.
Do you ever get to that point?
Well, if you don’t, you won’t understand my angst. But if you have been in this position, you will completely understand how wiped out I am and how unsustainable this is.
I must change. So this is me working through the last couple weeks mentally in my head and hoping that the next time I have a Red Ink episode someone gives me a topic that they hope I will cover.
In the mean time, you get to hear me work through the controversy that took place at the writer’s conference, how I built up some confidence in a couple of clients, and helped motivate them to push through writer’s block (not a real thing) and make some decisions. I hope that by working it out, I am able to take some of my own advice and push through this phase of unproductive idleness (I really don’t have the time for this).
