It has been a while since I’ve written a blog post on my latest series that covers the locations Evan and his intrepid companions travel through in The Labyrinthine Journey. I promise, I will get back to the series in due course.

Since the Virtual Book Launch (VBL), I have found it difficult to get back into writing, posting articles on my blog and on social networking sites. I am tired. Perhaps a better word is exhausted, and I haven’t been motivated or interested in writing. Working full-time doesn’t help either; early starts and late arriving back home.
At the start of the year, I had it all sorted; blank calendar templates which I’d fill in with various activities and writing tasks to complete. A physical diary I’d write detailed information that reflected the calendar overview. That worked really well right up to the VBL, then afterwards, it all fell apart.
I have three writing projects underway, of which one is the third book in the Servant of the Gods series, and the other two are new genres that I am dabbling in. Yet, as much as I am excited about these projects, I haven’t found my ‘juju’ (thanks George of the Jungle for that phrase).
Having said all that, I am working with my book designer for the interior layout of a print version of my book, The Labyrinthine Journey. This is taking a considerable amount of time, as I can only respond to her emails and check the document once I get home from work. The up side is that my book may be ready in time for Christmas, and what a great gift books are for that person who loves to read!
So, with that, I want to say thank you for sticking by me and I will get back on track!
And if you have any tips on moving forward, I loved to hear from you.
