Wednesdays are one of my long writing days. Meaning I don’t go to the gym. It’s a day I really like to crank out some pages, but today was also my first day going back to my urban fantasy, Amazon Ink.
It has been months since I worked on this story. I started by going through my editor’s suggestions for the first chapter. That was easy enough. Now I’m rereading everything to get back into the world. It’s fun. I love this world. I love my characters.
But as always when I have stepped away from something for a bit, there’s fear. Fear that I won’t be able to do it this time–that those other pages were somehow written by magic, that I wasn’t really involved or that it will feel that way when I start back on it.
I face this every time and I’m pretty sure other writers do too. And every time, I’m amazed that it wasn’t magic, that I am able to pick the story back up and keep going with it.
Hopefully, this time will be no different.
I’ll find out tomorrow. I’m giving myself today to get my head back in the game/story…
