I think writing a book is like running a marathon (or having a baby?).
You have to forget how hard the first one was to do before you want to do it again. π
I went to my beloved Barnes and Noble to look at books and think about my next move. I know, I know Γ’β¬β the book hasnΓ’β¬β’t even come out yet. But itΓ’β¬β’s already time to think about my next move, and I have tons of ideas (not all good, IΓ’β¬β’m sure!).
I actually ate lunch in between the racks:
I had a pear, an English muffin with almond butter, and a latte.
And then I went a little Operation Beautiful crazy. HereΓ’β¬β’s a few:
After working for a while, I actually had an eye doctor appointment. I lost my glasses when we were in London over Christmas, and I really need new ones.
(Expelliarmus!)
Guess what? My vision has improved by 0.5 in the left eye and 0.25 in the right eye! My doctor asked me if I had made any dietary changes in the last four years (I havenΓ’β¬β’t been to get a new script in forever), and I said yes, that I try to eat a lot better now. Guess what? He thinks my healthy lifestyle improved my vision a little! Not sure if itΓ’β¬β’s entirely true (he also said it couldΓ’β¬β’ve just naturally Γ’β¬Λleveled offΓ’β¬β’) but itΓ’β¬β’s still neat.
Post-doctor snack of crackers, cucumbers, salsa, and hummus:
Have a great FRIDAY afternoon!
(And donΓ’β¬β’t worry, I did not buy the Harry Potter glasses.)
First of all, you are so brave to post a pic of you with those glasses, you’re so cute! My glasses are ten years old! I only wear them at the most desperate of times. I hope at some point you’ll be sharing some of your next book ideas – does your publisher want something else from you at some point, or was it a one book deal? How does that all work?
