The Struggle Is Real

 


        Hello, gentle readers! Hope you are all well and staying safe!
        The struggle is real, folks, and I think, maybe, I’ve run out of words. Well, not exactly. The words are there…they just don’t want to go where I need them to go.
        After editing The Marshal & Mrs. Morgan, I’ve gone back to working on The Madam and Mr. MacLean…and the beginning is just…not right. Still. I’ve rewritten it three times already (I know that’s not a lot, but for me, it kinda is). Usually, I have the whole beginning in my head and it’s my favorite part of the writing process…introducing my characters and getting to know them. Wyatt, I know. He’s a good guy. It’s Sheridan I’m having a problem with.
        Now, with that being said, everything after the beginning is moving right along. I know what needs to happen (and yes, I’ve already written parts of it). I also know the ending (parts of that have been written, too)…I’m just struggling with how to get there.
        As I said, this is unusual. The “sagging” middle is where I have most of my problems.
        I will, however, persevere, no matter how difficult or frustrating because I like who Sheridan becomes and the changes that happen to her. She’s a good person, too.
       In the meantime, The Marshal & Mrs. Morgan is expected to release on July 22. I’m very excited. And I love this cover! It’s really beautiful!



And that's about all for me...gotta get back to the struggle. Stay well! Stay safe! And remember to spread kindness wherever you go!
