Hello everyone. I run a book group on Facebook, Lizzie’s Book Group, which is full of authors and writers. We chat about what books we like, how our writing targets are going and how to reach more readers. We come across some pretty eclectic chat topics and I have decided to share a few recent ones at the bottom of this post. Feel free to join the book group if you love books and writing. We have almost 500 members now and it’s a lot of fun.
I am currently in third edits for my new book and am trying to reach writing targets for another manuscript. I sometimes find it hard not to procrastinate too much, but I read a recent article where it said that procrastination is not about being too busy, it is about feeling emotional. If we are feeling that way, we tend to put off what we should be doing. It’s made me sit and think about clearing my work desk, so it’s a pleasurable place to work, getting the everyday jobs done early so that they are out of the way and then doing my favourite thing, which is sitting down to write… with a desk timer so I get those words onto paper!
Have a great week everyone. My first prize draw for my subscribers will be at the start of next month. Exciting times!

Wow 500 members, congrats! I always peek in but still navigating how to respond as D.L. Finn. Sometimes it lets me. Good point about emotions being a part of procrastination. That does make sense. Happy writing:)
Thanks Denise. That is why I just have an author FB now. I closed my personal one. It got too confusing.
It can!
