Hey everyone. Just wanted to give a quick update. I’m still working on the book. Just a few chapters left until I start editing. It’s been a busy week, lots to do with the family and planning for next year when the oldest starts Grundschule (Elementary School) including living arrangements. Don’t wanna say too much in case I jinx myself, but needless to say, I have a lot going on right now.
As for the book, I will have to let you all know that it will probably be released in January instead of December. This is simply a logical decision as December will be all about Christmas books, and I’d like to wait for that wave to pass by, plus I want to edit, edit as much as I can. So it will be around the first week of January. I try to get the books out sooner, but I’ve pretty much resigned to being a slower writer because the last thing I want is to neglect my kids and family life because of writing. And I could never be a writer who pushes out books for the sake of doing so. So, that’s that. Hope you all understand. Thanks.
As much as I want your next book, I am glad you are waiting until Jan. No one has time to read until then any way with all the holidays. Take a deep breath for just a sec. It will all still be there when you get back.
So true, Maureen. I barely have time to read anything now, much less with the holidays. Calm and relaxed is my new thing.
No worries. We know you’re a working mom!
Hey Julia. Working mom is definitely it, and writing isn’t the hard part!
I think your decision to wait is smart. You have to do what is best for you and your work.
Thanks, Savannah. I’m an editing freak anyway, that’s why I’m so in love with self pubbing now.
Quality VS. Quantity my dear take all the time you need. Oh I sent you an email hope to hear from you soon :)
Yep. Aly, I got your email. Gonna write back when I get some down time :-)
