Such a weird this year has been. I remember the start of this year being so, so awful and sitting there thinking "2025 is gonna be the worst", wondering how worse it could get. There was also an evening earlier in the year where I thought I'd give up writing forever.
For a few reasons now, it's actually turned around and become the BEST year. Not just writing but my personal life. This week has so far been a whirlwind and I'm absolutely not writing or focusing on my writing as I should be, but life has a funny way of doing things. Hell, this past MONTH has been absolutely crazy. I've never been more in shock and thankful for life. It's a funny old world.
I'm starting a new story, there's things going on in the background at home, I'm about to go on submission with Royally Bumped, and... yeah. Life is weird. The past couple of months have bowled me over.
When they say life begins at 30, really, it does. My 30s started amazing, then January was awful, but now it's turning around.
My point? Keep going. Even when I thought it couldn't get worse, I came through the other side. It may seem crap, but life has a funny old way of having the good all come at once!
