I had grand plans for last month, but got caught up in the intersection of physical and mental health issues that reduced my productivity output to a few book reviews and way too much time playing World of Warcraft. It’s more than a bit frustrating, but I’m trying to be gentle with myself. I didn’t blow any deadlines, and I’m in a weird limbo zone where I can’t plan too much until I have a firm publication date for a book currently with my editor. The good news is that I’m feeling better and I have a lot to look forward to.
As my publication career evolves, I’m going to start tweaking how this monthly blog post is presented. Love it? Hate it? Let me know in the comments!
