I made an important decision last week. As much as I love my current WIP, I don't think I can sell it. But I have an idea for a MS that I think will be great. So to stay on track for my goals for this year, I need to put in some really focused time on my new idea. So I'll be taking a break from blogging through the end of March.
I'll miss all of you, but I plan to use my time well, and be back either April 1st, or mid-April.
Have a good month.
Melissa
Oh, I know how heartbreaking that revelation is. I have a sneaking suspicion I might be in the same boat. :(
ReplyDeleteGood luck on your new writing goals. We'll be here when you get back.
wow, that's a big decision. I hope you use your time productively and get back on track with your plans. I'll miss you!
ReplyDeleteFocusing is good. New ideas are good too. Knowing when to quit is a wise move. And sometimes blogging becomes an excuse not to write or work on your WIP. Much Luck Melissa!
ReplyDeleteWe'll miss you too, Melissa. Have fun working on that new manuscript.

Good for you, you know your own mind. Best of luck on the new ms. See you when you get back.
ReplyDeleteGood luck! I look forward to the day you come back!
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you! As someone who spent all of last year (and the year before that) bouncing around between ideas trying to decide what to focus on, I feel your pain. Although looking at the work I'm doing now on a WIP I wrote over a year ago, I realize it wasn't about focusing on an idea so much as focusing on not sucking, writing-wise. So it was time well spent. But yes...good luck!
ReplyDeleteWe'll miss you. Happy writing and focusing on YOU.
ReplyDeleteWe'll miss you! Good luck with the new MS, and we'll see you soon :)
ReplyDeleteDo what you gotta do. We'll be waiting here to support you when you're ready!
ReplyDeleteenjoy the one on one bonding with your new wip! Good luck!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'll miss your Zoo day post and reading about the featured blogger. However, you need to focus on your writing and making your MS work. Good luck and we'll see you in April!
ReplyDeleteA brave decision, you go for it and we will see you April.
ReplyDeleteMissing you, Melissa. Hope you're doing well.
