Let's just take things slow...

It's not you, it's my muse. 


Sometimes writing just does not work out. Sometimes it's good to take things slow. Sometimes the universe even helps you along a little bit by blowing up your hard drive or killing your power. It can be a good thing. 

It’s okay to let life get in the way of your writing sometimes. Really. I am an advocate for taking well-deserved breaks, welcoming the refreshing 'new eyes' when you return to your work in progress, the inspiration you can gather, and the new outlook you have on life. 

I'm not the busiest writer in the world, but I try to get out a writing related blog a week, a travel one when I'm inspired (often!), the odd story competition, a feature column once a month for MK Pulse Magazine, and of course, working on that novel so reluctant to make it to page. Sometimes I forget there's more to my lunch times and I should go out for some fresh air, but I love my craft. Sometimes too much.

"If you love it, just occasionally, let it go." 
No one wants to ruin a good thing you've got going on by rushing things. So, this weekend, if you're writing, try to take things slow. No pressure!

    I'm a writer from Bristol, UK, with an unhealthy obsession with stationery and baking. I write magazine articles and short stories, but blogging is my real passion outlet.
