A hard day at Black Rock

Okay, y'all, I'm going to whine.

No, not wine. Whine. Really whine.

I love my job. If I don't make that clear enough, let me say it again. I love being home with my wife and writing and plotting and even all the crazy promo we have to do.

Today has been tough, though.

I find it really difficult not to take things personally. I have struggled with it all my life. When I waste weeks writing on a book that will never fit the call I'm writing it for, I get snarly. While this book will no doubt sell to another publisher, I am now 3 weeks behind on all my deadlines, and half through with a book that has no home.

Sigh.

The few other troubles I had got fixed, but they still rankled, and man, I just need some time with my foam roller.

XXOO

You can whine all you want. Your wife has your back and so do I. Hugs you tight and sends you lots of neck sugars. Love you Moma Sue

I'm sorry today/yesterday was tough for you. *HUGS* It sucks that you spent all that time writing something that won't fit a particular call :(( But YAY that you'll be able to sub it somewhere else and maybe it will be even BETTER!!!!

Here's hoping the rest of the week turns out better.
