Today’s authors aren’t problematic enough. Mary Shelley fought with Leigh Hunt for possession of her late husband’s disembodied heart. Caroline Lamb stabbed herself with a broken wine glass & then mailed a lock of her pubic hair to Byron. Rufus Griswold dug up his wife’s body and spent 30 hours kissing it. Living writers are dull by comparison.

Highlight of today: A reader bought one of my books, then walked off to the cafe area, got a cup of tea and promptly sat down to read the book. In front of me as my stall faced the cafe. Nothing like that to set off my author anxiety.

@EllieJayWrites May is going to be a busy month. Getting my novel up for presale is the biggest item on my current to-do list.

It is once again the first of another month! How are we in May? HOW? Oh and also... What are your plans for the month, fellow creative folks? I have way too many events, 3 indie books to read and review, beta reading comments to implement and the need to actually write.

@EllieJayWrites This is where patience gets its own subplot in the publishing process 😅

Alright, I've got my feedback from 2/3 beta readers. I'll be reworking some areas this weekend (in between book event stuff). I've reached out to the reader I'm still waiting on as I haven't heard from them for a few weeks. Other than that... just need to hear from my editor.

Phew! Double book event complete! What a way to spend a bank holiday weekend. I had an absolute blast and sold so many more books than I was expecting. Can't wait to do it all again next bank holiday weekend. But first... sleep. Then restocking. But sleep.

@EllieJayWrites ??? You should only feel joy, not anxiety. Reading with a comfortable beverage is deluxe appreciation. On the other hand, if they popped the lid of a bottle of vodka….

No updates today as I'll be out as an event all day! There's no wi-fi so I can't post, but I'll let you all know how it goes when I get home. And if you happen to be in the area, come and see me! I'll be selling books at Coronation Hall in Woodhall Spa.

First day of a two day book event down! I got some sales, met some people and was told by a previous customer that both he and his mother loved my books! I count that as a win. Here's to tomorrow!

@EllieJayWrites Partly his own fault to be honest. He knew about that one and still tried to load it by himself. Getting trampled, well...

@EllieJayWrites Tempted to starve a pedantic vegan in a Dalriadan short story today. I'm feeling grumpy and my uncle was killed by a bull a year ago. Make PETA try to rationalize that. 😕

@RayASullivan Thank you. I've had some slow days recently but I'm starting to get on better with it. I do have beta readers for my other project who will no doubt be a huge help next time too.

@EllieJayWrites Keep going. You'll have barren days, fruitful days. You'll doubt yourself (everyone does) and you'll rush to publish (we all do). Find people who will criticise constructively, accept or ignore as your choice. Have fun.

Another 1000 words added to my current WIP today (as well as making changes to my next release). Starting to get a feel for this new story. It only took 4000 words. I'm hoping to get it up to at least 10k, maybe 15k by the end of the month. Oh, and I really need a title...
