Help!!

Hi everyone, hope you are all well and healthy. As you may recall, I finished my third book Eleanor, however; I'm still waiting for a decision from my publishers. And I'm now feeling a little guilty, why? Well, even before I finished my last book, I had a good idea what I wanted from my next book; I had the main plot and sub-plots, characters, settings, twists, turns and even an idea for the front cover image! So, now it's been four months, plenty of time for writing; especially since I've been under furlough, I should be well into my fourth book - right? Wrong!

Has anyone heard if Coviditus? No, I haven't either! But I think I've got it. Okay, you may say I've got writers block, but it can't be, since I know everything I want my next book to be! For some reason I've just not been able to put pen to paper - so to speak. I deliberately gave myself a two month break from writing and do a little reading, but after that came my problem. So back to my Coviditus. I've given myself a psychological assessment and come to the conclusion that four months of inactivity; no work, no routines and no normal life, have definitely had an effect on the creative side of me.

I know I'm not alone in this, as I know a few family and friends in the same predicament. We're all creatures of habit and routines aren't we; getting up at the same time, going to work coming home at the same time. Ever since I began my writing venture, I've been used to working on my books as and when I had the time - usually later on in the evening or sometimes at weekends, when not working. I'm sure there are Psychologists out there that have a name for my lack of motivation, but there's a light at the end of the tunnel; I have a plan and it's simple! go back to writing in the evenings. I began last night and guess what? It worked - hopefully I'm back!

Well, at least I've been able to catch up on all those D.I.Y. projects that I've been putting off for years. Anyway, must get back to my book. Again, I hope you folk out there are all well and coping with this new way of life. Stay safe all of you, bye for now.
