Why I am not Feeling the Blog Thing ...Part 1



It is difficult to put energy into blogging while I am working on my book.

Garrison Keillor said, "It's like a major illness having a book in the works...You try to keep a life going, raise a child, try to be a spouse, have friendships. People aske you, 'How is the book coming?' You say, 'It's coming great.' What else are you going to say?"

I was talking to fellow writer Loretta who is working on this fabulous historical novel (I've read excerpts) and she completely agreed.

In fact, for Part 2 of this thought, visit Loretta's blog at www.lorettaoakes.blogspot.com or click on Complimentary Thoughts on my blog roll on right.

Of course, Loretta will post when she gets time and energy to do this, which may not be right now which completely makes my point!

I left a comment on part 2. I don't have the energy to leave another one.

LOL. How true indeed. I may have to cut back on my blog a bit. But...I admit...I'm addicted to it. :)

I'm not doing a book, and I'm tired of the blog thing sometimes too.
