The headaches are hunting me like a shark hunting blood.
I must hide from them. I can’t stay here long, here in the written word, or they’ll settle on my location and perch in my skull.
Lately the idea of marketing and interacting with other writers to build connections feels very exhausting. Sometimes my energy is up, sometimes it’s down, but lately it has been down. I think it might have to do with my job, which has been consistently busy for several months. It’s a lot to sustain and I probably don’t sleep enough.
I’m really hoping the pendulum swings back soon! I was having a lot of fun building my brand, being active on social media and exploring different avenues of marketing! But right now I’m fairly limited again. I wish I had the energy to do so much more. I love doing more. But today is a day to do less. Today is a day to rest and regenerate.
It can be really frustrating seeing what other writers are able to do, the energy they often take for granted. That’s my bitterness, but I know we all have our burdens and there are others who have way more to struggle through than I do. I just want to do what I feel I was made to do. I want to write and create.
Anyway, I’m not having a bad day, but I am sort of grieving the fact that things are coming along so much more slowly than I would like.
Count your blessings, and I’ll count mine. Peace!
