Anne Denae Wood

After only four hours of sleep and an early morning dentist appointment I realized that it has been WEEKS since I posted ANYTHING on here.
          
          I have been so STRESSED and struggling with anxiety and depression. Then I stress because I haven't posted anything and then not posting anything makes me more stressed and the extra stress makes it difficult for me to even think about writing and that stresses me out even more. It's an endless and ugly cycle.
          
          I'm trying to get over this hump I have right now, the reason that I haven't posted and just stopped because I was stressing out about posting anything and that stress makes me more stressed because I AM SO CLOSE TO FINISHING Heart's Content it just makes me depressed and so goes the whole cycle again.
          
          I'm just trying to decompress so that I can finally get over this hump and get the rest of the story published so I can work on the eventual final draft.
          
          To those of you who have been following Lisette and Genevieve's story, I am sorry gain for the lack of any sort of posts and I am going to try to start again next month.

Merry Christmas! I hope you are having and continue to have a wonderful holiday whatever you may celebrate!
          
          Real talk though, no post today since it is Christmas. I am so sorry for not having the last post up like I had planned, I just haven't had time to go back and edit it properly and likely won't until the new year. There are an approximate 12 parts of Heart's Content left for me to post and that's a rough estimation coming from the fact that I have four planned chapters left and I divide them up into halves and thirds depending on their lengths. I hope to finish writing it soon but life sometimes gets in the way of that!
          
          Happy holidays to you all!

Good news and bad news.
          
          Good news: I finished the part I was going to post today.
          
          Bad news: I wrote the part in the wrong season.
          
          Will be posting tomorrow after I rewrite scenery description. Sorry for the delay. (I know a common phrase for me this month. ): )

Ever have one of those days where you sit in front of your computer, notepad, phone, or whatever your writing device might be and you just can't focus and actually write anything you like or that actually is coherent at all? Well that's me, but all week. I guess it's just the holidays getting to me, making sure I have all my gifts bought before they sell out of the things I want to buy but no matter how often I think about where this story is going it's just been difficult to picture the scenes and actually commit to something because the ideas just come and go or don't fit with something else, etc. Well, I am still working on it. I'm determined to get this entire story finished by January. That's my goal and if I can get past this block or whatever it is, I should be able to achieve this goal.
          
          Long story short, not enough to post for a part tonight so I am going to jump off the rails AGAIN. Sorry for the delay but I hope you continue reading to the end because it is sooo close it frustrates me not being there already. It's maddening how close I am to the end but how that doesn't make the writing process go any quicker for me!

So we had Thanksgiving in the U.S. this past Thursday and I just wanted to quickly say that I am thankful for all of you who have been reading my story from the beginning and tell you how grateful I am for your reads and your votes.
          
          A big thank you to @XweirdgreyskyX and @Bexxyx for all of the votes! You are both awesome and I really appreciate you!

Sorry again readers. No update this week either, feeling sick on my stomach and I've been asleep most of today. Going to try again for next week. On the bright side, the story of Lisette and Genevieve is nearing its conclusion and should be finished by the end of December!

Hey gang! No update today I'm afraid. I haven't been sleeping well and I'm not satisfied with what I have written. Partially sleep depravation and partially I'm just not feeling what I have written because I was thinking about future edits and how I plan on changing the whole of the story in my next draft. Look forward to next week though because I plan on posting the part I was going to post today and the following part which I am looking forward to writing.

Please excuse the sloppiness of this week's part, I had so many ideas for it bouncing around in my head and I wanted to get them all out in this part rather than do too so I think I just kinda' shortened them. lol plus I have been super busy this week and it has been hard to find time to get the ideas out and written in a way that makes them understandable!

Thank you for the follow! Your book looks amazing and I can’t wait to start reading ❤️ Hope the kittens are doing well too :) 

Good news! Kittens are weaned at 7 weeks now and I have gotten back to writing! Expect a new part this Friday!
