Why I'm Not Writing This Week 4/9

Why I'm Not Writing This Week.png

Welcome to the Why I’m Not Writing This Week series!

If you’re not familiar with this series, just know that the only thing writers love more than writing is avoiding writing. And I am definitely no exception. Today, I’ll list five things that distracted me from my writing this week.

I encourage you to share with me your reasons for not writing every week too and I’ll share my favorites in the latest edition.

Happy Birthday To Me

I spent an amazing day off this Wednesday, celebrating my birthday with my husband. We shared a beautiful picnic at a local vineyard and went on a family walk. Cheers to year 28!

Vaccines!!!

I have one vaccine down and just one to go! It’s such a relief to be nearing the end of my covid fear. I can see the light at the end of the tunnel and it is so, so nice.

Spring Weather Is Here

Speaking of nice, we’ve been having some gorgeous weather here in North Carolina lately. I know we’ll probably have another cold snap before the spring weather kicks into gear, but in the meantime, I’m just going to enjoy the sun and breeze.

Getting Big

Arthur is already 9 months old and growing so much. He’s crawling, standing, cruising and getting into trouble any way he can. He’s also starting to get the hang of some Baby Sign Language and setting the foundation to say his first words.

Query Prep

I just finished a series of edits on my querying materials, including my query letter, synopsis and pitches. I hope to be jumping back into the query trenches by late May. Keep your fingers crossed for me!
