April, so soon. If only it felt like Spring outside. Welcome to the monthly, IWSG blog hop, meeting on the first Wednesday of each month. Thanks to our founder, Alex J. Cavanaugh, and the other IWSG admins. Find the entire list of participants here. Please share all your current insecurities and your encouragements.
Speaking of encouragements, it means a lot when I read all the encouraging comments each month. Thank you to all of you who take the time to be so generous.
This month's optional question was about playlists meant to inspire our writing. I don't really do that. Music actually distracts me when I'm writing which is odd because I can have Netflix playing in the background and usually do without even noticing it. I have playlists for walking and that works for me. I listen to the music and don't even notice I've climbed that big hill.
As most of you know, I've been buried in work for the Pennwriters Annual Conference. By next month at this time, I'll have all the preliminary work done and be really relieved by that. And I have to use my jigsaw puzzle table to put together all the materials for it and that's just a hardship. I need my jigsaws.
I was part of a book fest this past weekend and didn't sell many books but it was fun spending time with other writers. I'm a huge introvert, so I had to take a nap when I got home. After the conference, I need days' worth of naps to re-energize.
I'm keeping this short as I have lots of work to do. Too much for someone my age. Keep writing. Keep warm and keep reading.
Do you use a playlist or do you like quiet when you write? What kind of music energizes you?
