What’s New for 2018?

Hi everyone,

In case any of you have been wondering what the heck happened to me, and whether this blog is still alive, I wanted to give you a bit of a personal update.

Since I last posted, I have been busy editing fantasy novels and novellas for some wonderful clients – so busy that I had absolutely zero time for writing. I also moved into a day job that has been personally rewarding but extremely busy, so that even finding time for editing has been a challenge.

I came to the realization that this isn’t a great way of balancing my life, particularly since one of my long-time personal goals has been getting back to my creative side. Editing is wonderful, and it’s always inspiring to read the works of others, but darn it, I want to write my own!

So as of 2018, I have decided to put editing on the back burner, and am now focusing on writing my first urban fantasy novel instead, with the hope of self-publishing it in 2019.

I also want to pick up posting here again, providing communication tips through the lens of sci-fi and fantasy, while taking more time to read the posts of all of my blogging friends!

I expect it will take some time for me to get back into regular posting, and that “regular” will probably mean something like monthly, but it’s a start (or shall we say, a return!).

For those reading this, thank you for all your past support of my blogging, and I look forward to chatting with you as we see what the year brings!

All the best,

Sue

  1. Great to read your post this morning from Saint- Augustine Florida! Looking forward your communication tips for sci-fi and fantasy. I understand too well juggling between a full time demanding job and finding time to let inspiration visit me.

  2. Ooooh, yay for you! And for us! I’m excited to learn more about your book, and I look forward to reading it! Good job prioritizing what matters to you. Saying no to one thing in order to say yes to something you really want is powerful magic.

    1. Thanks, Brenna! I’ll be sure to share my progress, it’ll help keep me honest. 🙂 It’s amazing how difficult it is to say no to things sometimes – we need practice!
