Feeling the Pressure

Ever so often, I like to give myself a deadline and then continue to hound myself until the last second to complete whatever task I’ve put on a schedule.

Sometimes, this is extremely helpful but mostly I fail to reach the deadline and just move on to something else or keep plugging away at it until it’s done.

Lately, I have gone to an extreme that I have never gone to before. All year I have been writing several romance novels and decided to tell everyone I know about my dreams of becoming a published author by the end of 2025.

So that’s my current deadline and I am starting to feel the pressure.

Time passes by faster than I realize, and some days I don’t write anything at all - even though I should be finished completely with all of my edits by now. But I’m still determined to publish this book by the end of December.

“It’s only October, after all.”

This sentence is going to be the ruin of me!

I say this too often, and I fear that my work may suffer because of my procrastination.

So, if you don’t hear from me for a few days, just know that I have gotten myself into gear and I’m back on track to have this debut novel available to everyone this year!

Stay Wylde,
